ISLAMABAD
: The daughter of late Pakistani music legend
Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan has vowed to take legal action against those infringing on copyrights of her father’s songs.
“I am the only heir of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and have no siblings. How can people take financial benefit by singing my father’s songs without permission?” Nida Nusrat, Khan’s daughter, said at a presser in
Lahore
’s press club on Friday.
“After my father’s death, I possess the rights to his music,” the maestro’s daughter said in her maiden media appearance. She alleged that
Khokhar Productions
, a local music firm, had forged her signatures and fraudulently acquired rights to her father’s music. “I have issued them a legal notice and also sought compensation,” she said, adding that there were others in India and Pakistan involved in similar copyright violations.
She also dispelled the impression that she was married to Khan’s son,
Rahat Fateh Ali Khan. “There is no truth in it. It’s a coincidence Rahat’s wife is my namesake.”
