Ali Zafar: Shining moments at Bollywood Showstoppers concert

E-Paper | May 05, 2026

Cross-border heartthrob Ali Zafar continues to work hard and play hard - most recently at the Bollywood Showstoppers Concert at O2 Arena London. Ali performed alongside Bollywood celebrities Shahid Kapoor, Sonakshi Sinha, Jacqueline Fernandaz, and Mika Singh.

While fans in South Asia eagerly await official images from the four hour long concert, we've taken some time out to curate a few fun moments from the event.

@Moon please also tell all Pakistanis to come back and work in Pakistan. Leave their jobs and immigration and move back in. What's a difference between an actor who works abroad and an engineer who works abroad. Think about it.

He is on a right track. All he has to do is work hard a lot and choose good films. Even star kids fail in this industry.

@Moon : why do you have so much problem with India. Had it not been Indians to help Pakistanis team with proper kits, pak team wouldn't have played table tennis at CWG. And same case is with your entertainment industry. Your singers and now actors get fame and money with the help of India only. First you don't provide your talent with sufficient help and support and if India helps you get so vicious.

In Pakistan , Indian actors are treated like royalty as well. Even a low level Bollywood actor can show up and our inferiority complex nation will flock to his show/movie/concert. Since India has big media group, our Pakistani actors get the attention. But again, we can live as good neighbors but as a one nation. I thank our founding fathers every day for creating a independent country, Pakistan.

Please leave artists and sportsmen out of dirty politics. Let the entertain people without shadowing nationalism. People from both side of the border love Rahat sahib, Ali Zafar, Dhoni, Kholi, Irfan etc. Let's not disrespect them.
