Kolkata, Jan 5 (IBNS): Iconic Pakistani singer Ghulam Ali will perform in Kolkata on Jan 12.

The concert will be held at Park Circus Maidan in the city.

"#Kolkata #Breaking Ghulam Ali and his son to perform in the city on Jan 12 at Park Circus Maidan. Colleagues doing presser at 3.30," TMC Member of Parliament Derek O'Brien tweeted.

Gulam Ali's concert was cancelled in Mumbai last year.
