Mumbai, Jun 7: Singer Mika Singh said that he will speak to fellow singer Arijit Singh regarding the controversy related to superstar Salman Khan for a song in film ‘Sultan’.

MikaMika, speaking in the controversy when at a launch of Archana Kochhar's kids collection, said: "I have decided to discuss this when I will meet Arijit. However, I feel Arijit is quite young and maybe he has done a mistake unintentionally. Several times, we express ourselves on the award functions, but later we realize our mistakes."

‘Aashiqui 2’ famed singer Arijit, recently posted an apology letter on Facebook requesting Salman to forgive him and let his song remain in upcoming ‘Sultan’. He later deleted the post, but it had gone viral by then. Arijit believed that Salman was upset about some comments Arijit made about Salman at an awards show.

And after the soundtrack was released recently, there is no song by Arijit in it. It is being reported that the song in question is ‘Jag Ghoomeya’, which has been credited to Rahat Fateh Ali Khan.

Mika added: "I think it is a very small thing. My best wishes to Arijit. He should concentrate on his work. He is a very brilliant and a talented singer in Bollywood."

The 'Jumme Ki Raat Hai' singer has also lent his voice for Salman in the film. About his song, Mika said: "I would like to thank Vishal-Shekhar, Aditya Chopra, big bro Salman Khan and Yash Raj Music for giving me a beautiful song. I think I have sung such a lovely song after a long time. It's a fast romantic song and titled '440 Volt'. I hope people will love that."

Directed by Ali Abbas Zafar, ‘Sultan’ is slated to release July 6.

Mumbai, Jan 12: Shiv Sena leader Sanjay Raut on Sunday came out in support of actor Deepika Padukone, who is facing flak from the BJP and some other quarters over her visit to the JNU campus in Delhi to express solidarity with students who were recently attacked by armed assailants.

Raut, who is a Rajya Sabha member and the executive editor of Shiv Sena mouthpiece 'Saamana', said the country cannot be run in a "Talibani" style.

After Padukone's visit to the Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) on Tuesday, many appreciated her "silent solidarity", but some others criticised her for "supporting Leftists", saying it was a promotional stunt for her latest film "Chhapaak".

Some also demanded a boycott of her film, based on the life of an acid attack survivor, played by Padukone.

A section of BJP leaders also criticised the 34-year- old actor over her JNU visit.

Talking to PTI, Raut said, "The demand for boycott of the actress and her film is wrong. The country cannot be run in a 'Talibani' style."

"Chhapaak", directed by Meghna Gulzar, hit the theatres on Friday.

Declaring a movie tax-free means the state has waived the entertainment levy imposed on it, thereby bringing down the ticket rates and encouraging more people to watch it.
