Who knew film producer Charles Dobara was a fan of Pakistani folk superstar Arif Lohar? We don't blame Charles for Arif is truly one of a kind. 

 

 

The producer invited fans in London to join the singer at an upcoming event in a video he posted on Instagram. 

 

 

Dobara introduced Lohar by reminiscing about his extensive music career, stating, “You may know of the renowned Pakistani singer Arif Lohar. His story is truly captivating. He comes from a family of eight brothers, and his father, Alam Lohar, instilled the Punjabi folk singing tradition in him.” Dobara noted that Arif frequently mentions his father in interviews, most of which are conducted in Urdu. “Now he has three sons who continue the legacy, performing alongside him: Assam, Aamir, and Alam,” he added. 

 

 

The footage also highlighted a brief moment where Dobara comforted Lohar, saying, “Don’t worry, just sing, I’ll do all the work. All you have to do is say ‘Ahh.’”

 

 

Dobara’s caption reflected his admiration for the singer: “Look at this wonderful man, look at his warmth and his compassion for others. Watch his face when I say ‘He’s been in 45 films’; he looks down in humility and he’s thinking ‘How does this guy know?’ What a great and talented man.”

 

 

He announced that the event is scheduled for Sunday, the 17th of this month, in London, and urged followers to join him and Arif Lohar for the evening. Tickets can be obtained via @samaraeventsuk. Dobara will be participating in the Arbaeen event at Marble Arch and invited fans to accompany him to the concert afterward. 

 

 

Dobara clarified that he receives no compensation from any promoter or organization. “No music promoter, firm, social media platform, or organization has ever paid me. I am retired and subsist on my savings. No one can sway my decisions. I do this for the reasons explained in my film “Salvation for Love”.

 

 

Under the video, supporters expressed their admiration. One commenter mentioned being a fan of Arif Lohar since childhood, while others commended Dobara for organizing the event.
