Sahara has never ever sung any RDB songs on stage. Herbie: There was an occasion where a promoter put ‘Sahara/RDB’ on a poster due to the confusion and Surj of RDB brought it to my attention and we discussed its solution. How do you plan on rectifying the confusion? Also, when we first started to perform in Pakistan, Sahara and RDB used to do concerts together where I would be singing and RDB joined us on stage providing backing vocals so a lot of our fans remember this and think of us as being the same band. Herbie: RDB produced music for some Sahara tracks and have their name tagged in the songs which confuses people. This is confusing people and when we sing it on stage they think we’re the same band. If you go on YouTube you will see RDB’s name on the song and also see them singing it at most of their concerts. However, due to piracy and the internet, it is known as an RDB track. It’s a Sahara song composed, written and sung by myself, and was released on Sahara’s album entitled Undisputed. There’s a slight confusion over the song, Billo Nee Tera Lal Ghagra, as you are probably aware that it’s a huge hit in Pakistan and around the world. We have been doing concerts and recording albums since 1993 long before RDB was formed, and even introduced RDB with our song Soniye Nee Soniye in 2001. We don’t need to insult the intelligence of our wonderful Pakistani fans. Herbie: Sahara has not been touring as RDB in Pakistan. Your take on the controversy concerning Sahara’s performance as RDB in Pakistan? Herbie Sahara presented his version in a telephonic interview to Images on Sunday.
As concern grew on the issue of Sahara performing in RDB’s guise, it was incumbent to tackle it by taking into account Sahara’s take on the issue.
