Praising Danish Mohd performance, Javed Akhtar said. “You reminded me of Nusarat Fateh Ali Khan Saab. He was a huge sufi artist. There are very less people like him in this world. His nature was very simple, calm, and innocent”.
Talking about Javed Sir complimenting his voice Danish Mohd says, “Breathing the same air as that of Javed Sir is a big thing for anyone. Getting to perform is another and receiving a compliment is a dream come true. Cannot thank Indian Idol Season 12 enough for the great opportunities that they have bestowed upon all the contestants. I feel like my existence has finally been fulfilled. No one can be compared to the Master Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. But, what Javed Sir said will always remain etched in my heart.”
