On the other hand, Sona of the opinion that numerous women can testify Anu’s misconduct and asked if her fellow singer requires every woman to have recording devices with them.

Talking about Sonu Nigam’s viewpoint about Pakistan, Sona gave a piece of her mind: “Are Arijeet Singh, Badshah, Vishal Dadlani from Pakistan though? “You’ve had your moment under the sun dear. India anoints a new ‘Male Super Star’ every 3/4/5 years without fail. Don’t blame the Pakistani artists. Also, do not mix up Art & Music with Politics & Ideology.”

Facing criticism for comment on Pakistani singer, Sonu had to explain himself in an earlier Facebook post.
