Film producer Charles Dobara has publicly expressed his heartfelt admiration for iconic Pakistani folk singer Arif Lohar, sparking excitement among fans ahead of an upcoming musical event in London.

In a candid Instagram video, Dobara extended a warm invitation to music lovers, encouraging them to attend a special concert featuring Lohar. He praised the legendary singer’s deep roots in the Punjabi folk tradition and reflected on the cultural richness Lohar brings to the stage.

“Many of you may be familiar with Arif Lohar,” Dobara began. “His life story is remarkable. He’s one of eight brothers, and his father, Alam Lohar, was the torchbearer of Punjabi folk music.”

Dobara also highlighted how Lohar often reminisces about his father in his Urdu-language interviews, keeping the family’s musical legacy alive. He added a touching note by mentioning that Lohar’s three sons—Assam, Aamir, and Alam—now accompany him in performances, continuing the family tradition.

A particularly endearing moment in the video showed Dobara reassuring the singer: “Don’t worry, just sing. I’ll take care of everything. You just say ‘Ahh’.” His affection and respect for Lohar were unmistakable.

In the post’s caption, Dobara further praised Lohar’s modesty and warm spirit. He wrote: “Look at this wonderful man, look at his warmth and compassion. When I mentioned his 45 film appearances, he looked down with humility, surprised I knew. Truly, a gifted and grounded artist.”

The much-anticipated concert will take place in London on August 17, 2025, organised by Samara Events UK. Tickets are available online, and the event promises an unforgettable evening of cultural celebration.

Dobara also shared that he will be attending the Arbaeen event at Marble Arch before heading to the concert. Importantly, he clarified that his involvement is entirely voluntary.

“No promoter or media outlet has paid me to do this,” Dobara explained. “I live off my savings and make decisions based on my own convictions.”

His passion stems from his work on Salvation for Love, a documentary that delves into themes of spiritual awakening and the power of community.

Fans responded with enthusiasm, praising both Lohar’s legacy and Dobara’s sincere support. Many shared nostalgic memories tied to Lohar’s music, further building anticipation for the upcoming event.

The concert promises to be more than a performance—it’s set to be a vibrant tribute to cultural heritage, family legacy, and the enduring power of Punjabi folk music.
