NC leader displayed his talent by singing his favourite film songs

If Farooq Abdullah is known for his political plainspeak, the NC patron’s love for music is also not hidden from all. On Wednesday, guests at a Diwali Milan function were in for a surprise when the patron of the National Conference once again displayed his talent by singing his favourite film songs.

From the late Mohammad Rafi to Pakistan’s famous ghazal singer Farida Khanam, the former chief minister enthralled the audience with ghazals and some old Hindi film songs.
When Abdullah senior was reminded by his party leaders of his other engagements, the prompt response was Aaj Jane Ki Zidd Na Karo, Yuon Hi Pehlu Mein Behte Raho¿ The function was organised by National Conference legislator and managing director of Take 1, a local news channel, Devinder Rana.

Farooq, who had been inactive in state politics after his party’s debacle in the 2002 Assembly polls, has returned to the political centrestage in the last few months. He has declared his intention to lead the party as its chief ministerial candidate in the next Assembly elections.
