Junoon not to perform for PM
Even as India began anticipating a feel of love for our PM from sarhad paar, confusion has arisen galore.
On Wednesday news reports suggested that Junoon, the Pak band that has a considerable following in our country, had been signed on by India’s green crusader RK Pachauri to play at a programme organized in PM Manmohan Singh’s native village of Gah, Punjab, which now forms a part of Pakistan.

Salman Ahmad of the band had also informed that he roped in Sunidhi Chauhan to play alongside him in the event which was to be held on September 26, the PM’s birthday.
Now, in a twist to the tale, RK Pachauri, reportedly helming this bash, wants to clear the air. He says, “I am not involved in celebrating the PM’s birthday in any manner. The programme, which my organization has organized in association with a Pakistani NGO to promote sustainable energy, will be happening in Lahore in September 14 and 15. There is no event, at least of which I am a part of or which I have signed on Junoon for, on September 26 in Gah.”
