Arijit Singh may have won laurels from across the world for his singing, but his fine tunes will perhaps never be music to Salman Khan’s ears.

Salman Khan and Arijit had a bitter altercation during an awards show being hosted by Salman.Since then the superstar has had a No-Arijit Singh-In-My-Films rule.

Kick (2014), Bajrangi Bhaijaan (2015), Prem Ratan Dhan Payo (2015), Sultan (2016), Tubelight (2017), Tiger Zinda Hai (2017) and now, Welcome To New York – Salman has managed to get Arijit out from his films, one kick at a time.

Even though Salman is doing just a guest appearance in Welcome To New York, he made sure that Arijit wasn’t singing a song in the movie. He got Rahat Fateh Ali Khan to sing the song, for which Arijit had initially sung the scratch version.

A source close to the film, on grounds of anonymity, exclusively told SpotboyE.com, “Arijit has sung the rough scratch of the track which was to be used in the film. However, Salman was quite miffed and he told the makers, “Anyone in the fraternity could croon the track but Arijit.” The makers had a few singers in mind out of which they zeroed in on Rahat.”

If we recall back in 2016, Arijit had written an open letter on Facebook where he had profusely apologized to Salman for the incident which happened way back in 2013. Arijit requested Salman to allow his version of Jag Ghoomeya to be retained in the music album of Sultan.

However, all his pleas fell on deaf ears as Salman got Rahat Fateh Ali Khan to croon that track and what a huge hit it became!

All we can say is that it would take a miracle to get Salman finally forgive Arijit!
