Actress and Director Divya Khosla Kumar has slammed Sonu Nigam calling the singer thankless. Divya took to Instagram to hit out at the allegations levelled against Bhushan Kumar by Sonu on social media. “Today it’s all about who can run a good campaign.. I'm even seeing people being able to sell lies and deceits with their strong campaigns.. #SonuNigam such kind of people know how to play with the minds of the audience.. God save our world,” she wrote on her Instagram Story.
Sonu shared a new Instagram video on Monday morning, which he captioned: "Laaton ke mafia baaton se nahi maante (you cannot reason with the uncouth mafia with words)." In the video, the singer accused Bhushan of attempting to sabotage his image."Bhushan Kumar, now I have to mention your name. And now, you deserve being addressed without respect. You have messed with the wrong person," Sonu said in the video in Hindi.
Sonu had earlier posted a seven-minute-long video on Instagram in the wake of actor Sushant Singh Rajput’s death. In the clip, he requested top music labels to be “a little sensitive” towards young talents so that the latter may not end up facing a fate like Rajput. Singer Monali Thakur backed up Sonu Nigam's claims and revealed that power lies in the hands of few in the music industry. She claims that mafia does exist and nobody gets their due. She told Bollywood sky that she sent him a message thanking him for saying the truth.
