Adnan Sami, Omar Abdullah lock horns on Twitter over 'houseful' Srinagar concert

New Delhi: Famous musician and singer Adnan Sami on Saturday enthralled his audience with some of his well-known songs, including those requested by youth in attendance, at the Rhythm in Paradise concert in Srinagar. But, it is being said that a lot of seats were left empty at the venue during his performance. As a proof of the same, former Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah retweeted some pictures.

Refuting the claims hinted by the 47-year-old politicians, Adnan then took to the microblogging website to set the facts straight. Adnan also posted some exciting photographs online. In the pics, the venue can be seen jam-packed with the viewers.

Sadly, their exchange of tweets quickly evolved into an ugly spat. Check out:

That’s a real pity. I hope people have filled those seats now. For an evening they can let the music transport them to a more peaceful place https://t.co/4DJJNFCfQG — Omar Abdullah (@OmarAbdullah) October 7, 2017
