Alisha Chinai recently paid tribute to Pakistan’s legendary pop star, Nazia Hassan, by performing a cover of her iconic song Aap Jaisa Koi at a London concert. While the Indian singer’s performance showcased her talent, it didn’t sit well with some fans of the late legend, who argued that no one could truly replace Nazia’s unique voice.
Social media saw a flurry of reactions, with some fans expressing their dismay. One commenter said, “No voice in the world can match Nazia’s voice. She was the one and only nightingale of Pakistan,” while another claimed, “Ruined by Alisha.” Despite the harsh criticism, some fans chose to focus on the enduring appeal of Nazia’s music, declaring that her songs still sound fresh to this day.

This is not the first time Nazia’s hits have been covered, with other artists like Sunidhi Chauhan also attempting to recreate her magic. Sunidhi’s version of Boom Boom from an Indian commercial last year was well-received, a stark contrast to the mixed reception of Alisha’s tribute.
While some fans may have been critical of the latest cover, it’s clear that Nazia’s music continues to inspire and captivate, with no rendition truly able to surpass the original.
