Pakistan singer Adnan Sami likely to get Indian citizenship
New Delhi, Oct 24 (IBNS): Bollywood singer Adnan Sami, who hails from Pakistan, might get Indian citizenship, media reports said on Saturday.
He had come to India in 2001 on a one-year visa and kept renewing it time to time.
In August, Sami was reportedly allowed to stay indefinitely in India following non-renewal of his Pakistan passport.
According to media reports, the Union Home Minister is likely to grant him citizenship in view of his service to arts.
