For any group $G$, let $nacent(G)$ denote the set of all nonabelian centralizers of $G$. Amiri and Rostami in (Publ. Math. Debrecen 87/3-4 (2015), 429-437) put forward the following question: Let H and G be finite simple groups. Is it true that if $|nacent(H)| = |nacent(G)|$, then $G$ is isomorphic to $H$? In this paper, among other things, we give a negative answer to this question.
