Reacting to the video, a user wrote: “Men have personal space too. Being a fan doesn’t mean you can violate their personal space.” Another commented, “He acted with grace and sensitivity.” A comment also read, “Why do fans put celebrities in such an awkward position? It’s so cringe and embarrassing. Being a fan doesn’t mean you lose your senses.” “What a gentleman! He seemed a little uncomfortable but handled the situation calmly,” read another comment.
His fans and followers often hail Atif Aslam for his humble gesture and behavior with fans. He once stopped his concert in the US after fans threw currency bills at him on stage. He stopped the concern right away and asked the fans to pick up the money and donate to some other generous cause. Upon refusal from a fan, the singer said that he wouldn’t start the concert until the currency notes were cleared from the stage. This was another incident in which Atif Aslam further gained respect from his fans.
