Passori singer Ali Sethi responds to speculations about alleged marriage with Salman Toor
text_fieldsNew York: Amid rumours of his purported marriage with Salman Toor, Pakistani singer Ali Sethi has broken his silence on the matter. He dismissed rumours and slammed people who are spreading them.
The singer, who gained fame with the 2022 hit "Pasoori," took to social media to address the reports and provide clarity.
The social media sphere was rife with discussions about Ali Sethi's alleged wedding to childhood friend Salman Toor in New York. The unverified reports of their marriage sparked a frenzy on Twitter, making the singer a trending topic. However, Ali Sethi has now come forward to offer his response to the marriage rumours.
In a recent Instagram story, Ali Sethi set the record straight by refuting the rumours surrounding his marriage. He humorously suggested that those propagating these claims could assist him in promoting his latest release, "Paniya." His statement read, "I am not married. I don't know who started the rumour. But maybe they should help market my new release." The singer accompanied his message with a link to his new song.
The reports had indicated that Ali Sethi and his longtime friend Salman Toor had secretly tied the knot in a private ceremony in New York. These unverified claims also suggested that the two had been in a concealed relationship for a considerable period. The pair initially crossed paths during an art class at Aitchison College in Lahore, where they both pursued their education. While Toor is known for his artistic endeavours and primarily resided in New York, Ali Sethi also relocated to the city from Pakistan.
Ali Sethi rose to prominence with his 2022 track "Pasoori," a song that transcended borders and garnered attention both in Pakistan and India. Featured in the 14th season of Coke Studio, the track swiftly gained popularity for its catchy beat and unique blend of musical influences. The term "Pasoori," translating to "difficult mess," became a global sensation and topped charts within a remarkably short span.
Recently, a Hindi version of the hit track titled "Pasoori Nu" was released.
