Salman Ahmad has won himself an international fan, and she's not just anybody, she's the Academy Award winning rock singer, Melissa Etheridge.

In a tweet to the Junoon singer, Melissa asked:

An invitation to which Salman earnestly replied with a yes:

This is not the first interaction between the two. The two rock stars met at the Nobel Peace Prize concert in Oslo 2007. They have co-written the song 'Ring the Bells' which Melissa featured in her 2008 album Merry Christmas.

The Grammy winner has also written the introduction to Salman Ahmed's book Rock & Roll Jihad where she says, "The story you are about to read is the story of a light-bringer… Salman Ahmad inspires me to reach always for the greatest heights and never to fear….Know that his story is a part of our history.”

Perhaps another duet is next in line? We hope so!

But Salman Khan is not good at singing! Did she ever hear any of his songs?

a) He has to stop posing himself as a SUFI because he is not a sufi singer; b) Who the hell is Melissa Etheridge, some granny from Kansas.........please Melisa save yourself with the embarrassment to have that clueless singer around

But, Salman has much more important job to do with Imran Khan? Whose love is greater? It will appear soon.

Salman is just a guitarist. He is not a singer. He knows how to mange and market his brand. It was Ali Azmat who was the lead singer for Junoon who sang some great songs for us.

@Thoroughthinker , I hope he stays true with his music . With Raja khan, he will sound confused as the whole party.
