Adnan Sami was a Pakistani singer but took to Indian nationality by surrendering his passport. He was recently awarded with Padma Shri alongwith Karan Johar and actress Kangana Ranaut. He also said that being a Muslim he feels safe in the country.

Aamir Khan in one of the biggest controversy in 2015, he had remarked that he and his family do not feel safe in India. His wife Kiran Rao had also suggested to quit the country. This remark was made a year after right wing political party BJP came into power. Several controversies took place surrounding religion and nationalism issues in the country. The statement led to a huge uproar and Aamir Khan faced a major backlash.

Adnan Sami meanwhile stated that as a Muslim he feels safe in India and CAA is for tracking people who want citizenship living outside India. He also spoke about the controversy with Aamir Khan and said that he is not responding to what Aamir Khan had said in 2015. As far as Adnan Sami is concerned he respects all religions and celebrates all religions. He also said that it is better to celebrate humanity in whichever form it comes. Talking about his nationality, he said that he had so many options but he wanted to come to India.

Talking about ongoing violence in Delhi, the singer said that he hopes peace is restored in Delhi. Being a musician he has always spoken about love and peace. He requested the Delhi residents to maintain peace and respect life and resolve issues by indulging into conversation. With folded hands he requested to bring peace in the country and foster peace and harmony among the community. He claimed that the entire issue is being politicized and such issues must not hamper peace and harmony in the country.
