Fondly called Lala (elder brother in Punjabi dialect), the 62-year-old is known for hits like "Dil lagaya tha dillagi ke liye", "Ek phul motiye ka", "Qameez teri kaali", "Ither zindagi ka janaza" and "We Bol Sanwal".
He was set to perform at Purana Quila here Saturday evening for a concert Ibaadat: Mehfil-E-Ruhaaniyat, where 92.7 BIG FM is the exclusive radio partner. The concert is being held for cervical cancer awareness.
He will treat the audience to Sufi songs and then sing "what the audience requests for," said Niazi, who would like to sing live in India again and again if given a chance.
