Days after Sonakshi Sinha blocked Sona Mohapatra from
her Twitter account for her comments on the Justin Bieber controversy, the
singer is now lashing out at Pritam Singh for supporting the actress.
The RJ, who
participated in Sonakshi-judged celebrity dance show Nach Baliye (he was
eliminated last week) took to Twitter to give his side to the story on the hot
topic of actors turning singers.
He said, “I don’t
see any harm if an actor loves to perform and sing, that is what makes an actor
versatile. Sonakshi Sinha is among one such actor who is multi-talented...And I
don’t think anyone should have a problem with that..Because we only grow when
we let others grow. So I totally stand by Sonakshi here. #Pritam Singh (sic).”

Soon after, Sona
replied by saying, “Dear Pritam, your bio states that you are an aspiring
'actor'. I do sincerely hope that the family you stand by helps you 'grow' too.
Unlikely (sic).”
Ouch!
In case you are
wondering what the controversy is, a few days ago, Kailash Kher told a website
that he disapproves of the organisers’ decision to rope in Sonakshi Sinha for
the Justin Bieber gig.
“It doesn’t give a good message internationally. They (people overseas) will
think that Sonakshi must be a big singer in India. Then she will get concert
offers, and then probably Sonakshi will laugh them off saying, ‘I am not a
singer but an actor’,” Kailash said.
Kailash found
support in singers like Armaan Malik (Sonakshi and he got into a Twitter
spat) and Sona Mohapatra. Soon after, Sonakshi announced that she is not
performing with Justin Bieber and added that she is an actor who loves music, who loves to perform and
who loves to sing. And if anyone has a problem with that, in the wise words of
baba Bieber himself... they can go "love" themselves.
Not in the mood
to let it go, Sona Mohapatra took to Twitter to give an earful to the actress.
After reading Mohapatra’s post, Sonakshi Sinha blocked the singer.
Time to call it truce, guys!
