Words for wife

Published April 22, 2012

Adnan Sami Khan is an incorrigible romantic. Age does not seem to have any effect on him. The musician who can play the keyboard even with the back of his hand has penned and composed a new song for his wife, Roya. The ditty was to hit the music charts in February. It did not. Why? If Indian newspapers are to be believed, Adnan SK wanted it to be a ‘polished diamond’. The musician believes his wife supported him at a time when he had hit ‘rock bottom’.
