Ali Haider just released a video in which he has criticised Waqar Zaka’s attempt to score brownie points with public using Amir Zaki’s death.
Waqar Zaka being Waqar Zaka came out with a video following the demise of legendary guitarist Aamir Zaki in which he used harsh words for the entertainment industry for not being there naming Ali Haider and Haidqa Kiyani exclusively.
“Artists should come and see how Aamir is kept here. This day can also come in our lives,” he said, further adding that nobody was there to take care of the dead body of the legendary singer.
As a response, Ali Haider released a video saying, “Everyone knows that I have been living in the United Staes for over two years now and Hadiqa lives in Lahore. But you [Waqar] were in Karachi. Why couldn’t you do anything for Zaki when we all knew the tough time he was going through?”
“If I would want to do something good, I will do it without telling anyone,” he said adding that Waqar Zaka should refrain from using this incident to make a scandal that was non-existent.
The renowned guitarist Amir Zaki passed away on Friday.
As per reports, Zaki suffered from heart failure after a long battle with health problems.
“The legendary guitarist the magician Amir Zaki just passed away. Recite Fatiha for departed soul,” confirmed one of his relatives on Twitter.
Born in Saudi Arabia in 1968, Zaki started playing guitar at the age of 14.
Zaki also toured with Vital Signs, before being asked to leave the band.
He then launched a solo career.
Aamir Zaki began his musical journey when he was discovered by Alamgir. While touring with Alamgir, Zaki would play a Flying V guitar which he built himself.
After his career as Alamgir’s lead guitarist, Aamir Zaki formed three rock bands The Barbarians, Axe Attack and Scratch.
Amir Zaki briefly joined Vital Signs as the group’s lead guitarist in 1994. A year later he released his debut solo album Signature. It was from this album that his most recognised solo song ‘Mera Pyaar’ became a hit.
