Yeah i saw on the news he also gave :Evil a present. A CD of his new album 'Bismillah' or something like that.

Why and how did he get to see the President of Pakistan?

Here's what the trusted wiki has to say about him:

He also did a concert series in Pakistan to raise funds for the quake victims. He has also helped rehabilitate victims of the Orissa cyclone and street children in Kenya.

Didn't he also go to jail for tax evasion or was that someone else?

God knows, probably someone else. Here's what wiki had to say about it:

Mehndi was accused of being a member of a scam bringing illegal immigrants to Canada by disguising them as musicians, a charge he denies. He was in hiding for a month before he surrendered to police in Patiala and charged with 31 counts of immigration law violations. Punjab police director-general, A. A. Siddiqui, later stated Mehndi was innocent and insinuated that the confusion arose because Daler and his brother, who was the original target of the scandal, looked alike.

Shaukat Aziz hosted Angelina Jolie,

I guess Zardari swings the other way.

Well Aziz is a playa, Condoleezza Rice can vouch for that!

 

[Saj]

I guess Zardari is offering a role in his government to Daler ?

best Bhangra?

I think all Bhangra Music from the Indian Punjab side has a similar tone.
Even the non-native Punjabis have noted it.

I hate Sikh Bhangra musicians. Why is he using Islamic terms to for his album that will be full of lust describing a women's body!?. Sikh bhangra songs are full of belittling ladies as objects of sexual desire like how women walk and all that!. This garbage album of his has pleased no one.
