Despite his father allowing him to pursue music, Bilal had a fear of his Madrasah teachers, which constrained him from visiting his hometown. 

"In the beginning, I avoided going to Sialkot. Whenever I saw my teachers, I would change lanes out of fear of being questioned," he said. "I thought they would say, 'You are a Hafiz, and now you are singing?'"

Moreover, Bilal acknowledged that it was 'challenging' because, as he quoted his father, 'I am allowing you to pursue music because I don’t want to make you feel restricted.

Apart from this, Bilal shared how naughty he was during his Madrasah journey, recalling how he irritated his teachers by adding chilli peppers to their food and putting garbage in their shoes.

However, as Bilal matured, he experienced life's ups and downs, its joys and sorrows. He plans to reflect on these experiences in an upcoming album.

Bari singer admitted that his past songs reflected his struggles. His upcoming album will illuminate the brighter path he treads on.

Talking about his experience in India, Bilal appreciated the professionalism of the Bollywood industry. 

He said that in the Indian industry, whether it's a superstar or a junior artist, everyone must strictly adhere to their contracts, which is a good principle.

Bilal suggested that the Pakistani industry should also adopt such principles to facilitate further development.
