Zayn Malik was all praises for his former boy band One Direction when he collected his first solo act award at the most recent Asian Awards.
The 22-year-old singer, who grabbed the award for his outstanding contribution to music, asserted that he had an amazing time as a member of the pop band, the BBC reported.
Malik said that he would also like to take this moment to thank four of the best guys that he ever met whilst being in the band and doing all the amazing things that he did.
Malik left One Direction last month after returning to the UK from the boyband's tour having been "signed off with stress".
