Tahir Shah the Pakistani singer, who became an online sensation overnight with his song ‘Angel’, has left the country after receiving life threats, his agent said on Wednesday.
Taher Shah rose to fame with his music video Eye to Eye and then yet another music video Angel that was released last year. The singer is known to spread love by his music. Although his songs are about love, one cannot be certain if he gained popularity for his artistic skills or the lack of it. His peculiar performance in the music videos has been parodied several times.
According to his agent, Shah had been receiving death threats for a while now. “Pakistan’s famous singer Taher Shah, who is known for spreading love through his music, had been receiving life threats for quite some time,” said in a statement released by his agent.
“Recently Shah made his film debut with Pakistan’s first online film and it seems like the haters are not admiring his approach of using arts to the benefit of mankind. Perhaps that is the reason he was getting threats.
“Shah was left heartbroken when the government failed to provide him security and as a result of which he decided to leave Pakistan,” the statement said. The singer’s departure was confirmed by his manager. “Even I don’t know where he has gone to but he has left Pakistan for sure,” he said.
