Pakistani singer Aima Baig has come under fire from netizens after her recent performance at the ‘Pakistan and Indonesia Music Night’ in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. This event was part of the Jeddah Season festivities, celebrating Pakistani and Indonesian music.
Alongside Aima, the event featured performances by artists like Bilal Saeed, TikTok star Rabeeca Khan, actor Kashif Khan, Indonesian singer Lady Rara, and the Sonu Dance Group. Thousands attended, enjoying a vibrant display of cultural music.
Before the event, Aima had announced on Instagram that she was traveling abroad for work. This led to speculation that she might be quitting the music industry. She later clarified that her trip was work-related.
Aima’s performance in Jeddah was well-received, with her singing popular songs like “Kaif-o-Suroor” and “Mast Malang.” Videos of her performance circulated on social media, showcasing her strong stage presence.
However, her participation in the music event shortly after performing Umrah sparked criticism. Aima had documented her Umrah pilgrimage on Instagram before her performance, which led to mixed reactions online.
Screenshots of her Umrah Instagram stories spread across social media, eliciting both praise and criticism. While some followers lauded her for performing Umrah, others criticized her for engaging in a musical performance during the same trip.
