Actor Jada Pinkett Smith got a chance to show her love for Sufi musician Abida Parveen, who she admires.
The Hollywood actor recently attended a concert of Abida Parveen. She shared pictures of the concert on her Instagram story, calling the musician her ‘spiritual mother’.
After the concert, Smith was able to get a picture taken with the legendary musician, in which she appeared quite excited.
Smith had once shared a video of Sufi artist performing Chaap Tilak and had said that Abida Parveen and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan were her favourite Sufi vocalists.
Abida Parveen has a massive fan following in Pakistan. The fact that she has even managed to make admirers out of people who not only don’t understand the language her songs are in, but who have been exposed to music in their cultures quite unalike to hers, is a testament to her greatness.
