Mika faces boycott
The All India Cine Workers Association (AICWA) has banned Mika Singh from the Indian film industry for performing at an event in Karachi, which was hosted by former Pakistan President Pervez Musharraf's kin, Adnan Asad. A letter from the AICWA president, Suresh Shyamlal Gupta, stated: "AICWA bans and boycotts singer Mika Singh from the Indian film industry for performing at a high-profile event at Karachi on August 8. AICWA takes a tough stand of immediately boycotting his association with movie production houses, music companies and online music content providers." The association also sought the intervention of the Information and Broadcasting Ministry. The statement added, "Anybody dealing with Mika Singh will do so at their own risk and will also be boycotted." A 30-second video clip tweeted by a Pakistani journalist showed the Jumme Ki Raat crooner belting out his chartbusters at a pre-wedding ceremony of Asad's daughter.
