He added, “I had a great time making music, playing at concerts for thousands of people, getting loved and appreciated, facing controversies, making some wrong decisions, spreading some positivity, making some amazing friends, working with people who were my idols, learning from the best and doing what I loved doing.” Sharing how he now believes that the actual purpose of his life is “way bigger than all of this”, Qureshi remarked, “We have very little time in this world to make our afterlife better.”

However, Natasha Baig, a singer, did not agree with Abdullah’s comments and told what she thought about what he said. She stated people can leave the business if they want to, but they shouldn’t make other people look like devils because music is holy.
