Famous Singer Rahat Fateh Ali Khan apologised on Saturday and owned a video circulating of him physically abusing his “student” after it generated online furore at his behaviour.
Earlier in the day, a video doing the rounds on the media showed the singer beating ostensibly a domestic servant repeatedly over a missing “bottle”.
The video received strong disapproval from internet users towards the singer. In a follow-up apology video released today, the singer described it as a “private issue between a teacher and his student” and named Naveed Hasnain as the person being hit in the video.
