Chahat Fateh Ali Khan Faces Criticism After Calling Himself Pakistan’s Number 1 Singer

Chahat Fateh Ali Khan, a popular social media entertainer, is once again in the spotlight but this time for a controversial reason. In a recent podcast, Chahat Fateh Ali claimed that he is the “number 1 singer” in Pakistan, ranking Atif Aslam second and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan third.

This statement created a storm on social media, with many fans of Pakistani music expressing strong reactions. While Chahat is known for his humorous and viral content especially his famous video “Bado Badi” his latest ranking of singers was seen by many as bold and disrespectful.

In the interview, Chahat said:

“Atif Aslam is good. He came with a new and different voice. His start wasn’t that strong, but now he’s doing great. But I, Chahat Fateh Ali Khan, am number one. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan is at number three. He is also good. But from Lahore, I will always be number one.”

This self-declared position has led to sharp criticism and mockery across social media. One user wrote:

“Atif Aslam must be crying in a corner after hearing this.”

Another commented:

“He acts like a fool, but he’s smart. He says these things to stay in the news.”

While some laughed, others were more serious, accusing Chahat of disrespecting legendary artists. This is not the first time Chahat Fateh Ali has faced backlash. In the past, he compared himself to Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, and people responded with the same mix of jokes and outrage.

Chahat rose to fame with his funny remix of Madam Noor Jehan’s classic “Akh Ladi Bado Badi.” His style, though odd to many, has gained global attention through memes, remixes, and social media edits. Still, his recent comments have once again raised questions about where to draw the line between humor and disrespect.
