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.

Indore, Jun 6: An FIR has been registered against television producer Ekta Kapoor and two others here in Madhya Pradesh on charges of spreading obscenity, hurting religious feelings, and improper use of national emblems in her web show 'Triple X season 2', police said on Saturday.

The FIR also mentions about a particular scene which allegedly portrays the Indian Army's uniform in a highly objectionable way, an officer said.

Besides Kapoor, the FIR names director of the web series Pankhudi Rodrigues and screenwriter Jessica Khurana, said Annapurna police station inspector Satish Kumar Dwivedi.

The complaint was lodged on Friday night by Valmik Sakaragaye and Neeraj Yagnik, both residents of Indore.

"Ekta Kapoor's OTT platform ALTBalaji streamed (erotic) web series 'Triple X season 2' which not only spread obscenity but also hurt religious feelings of a particular community," Dwivedi said quoting the complaint.

A scene in the web show portrayed the Indian Army's uniform in a highly objectionable manner and also disrespected the national emblems, he said.

Kapoor and others have been booked under sections 294 (obscene acts and songs) and 298 (Uttering, words, etc., with deliberate intent to wound the religious feelings of any person) of the Indian Penal Code, Information Technology (IT) Act, and the State Emblem of India (Prohibition of Improper Use) Act, 2005, Dwivedi said.

Mumbai-based Ekta Kapoor is the founder of ALTBalaji, which is owned by her production house, Balaji Telefilms.

Further investigation is underway, the police officer said.

New Delhi, Aug 5: Playback singer S P Balasubrahmanyam on Wednesday confirmed testing positive for COVID-19 with 'mild' symptoms.

The 74-year-old musician shared the information through a video message posted on his official Facebook page.

In the video, the singer detailed about having a little "discomfort" for two days, stating he had chest congestion along with cold and on-off fever, which led him to get tested for the virus.

However, he also mentioned that he could have stayed at home in self-quarantine, as advised, but did not want to put his family in danger, and hence got admitted by his own choice, to recover quickly.

"I am in good hand, I am in good health. Nobody has to worry about this. The fever has subsided, and in two days I'll be discharged and I'll be home. Thanks for the concern," he said in the video message.
