Mo Joshi further said that a rapper did not have any problem with movie’s producers and they had been helpful in getting Sez credits for other songs in the film. Meanwhile, the music label has not given any comments yet.
Sez On The Beat aka Sajeel Kapoor is most known for producing beats for many rappers such as Prabh Deep and Divine. He was the producer for the original version of ‘Mere Gully Mein,’ which is regarded as one of the big hits of Naezy and Divine, bringing them into the spotlight.
