Singer Adnan Sami, who got Indian citizenship in 2016, said Pakistani industry thought he was finished in 1998 and wrote him off. "They didn't provide any publicity for my songs...Nobody got to know when the album released and vanished," he recalled. Adnan said Asha Bhosle motivated him to come to India and record 'Lift Karade' and 'Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein'.
