DHARAMSALA, India – US singer Paul Simon will on Monday join a long line of celebrities who have made their way to the Indian northern hill station of Dharamsala for a meeting with exiled Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama, an offical said.
The Dalai Lama’s press officer Tenzin Taklha Sunday confirmed the meeting and said Simon was due to stay in the hill station for two days.
