Guru Randhawa slammed for sexualising school girls in new song, singer breaks silence on the backlash – Firstpost

Guru Randhawa is under a massive social media storm after his song Azul surfaced on the internet and netizens have slammed the singer as they felt he was sexualising school girls in the song. Sonam Kapoor even liked a post that slammed Randhawa.

Amid the backlash, the singer shared a cryptic post on Instagram and wrote- “Azul is Azuling (wine glass emoticons). When God is with you, you only move forward (red heart emoticon)”

Guru Randhawa made his acting debut with G. Ashok’s film Kuch Khattaa Ho Jaay.   The movie also featured Saiee Manjrekar and Anupam Kher. During the trailer launch event, a media person compared Guru Randhawa to the legendary actor Dharmendra in his younger days.  

The singer said, “Firstly, you have compared me to the god of acting. You have taken his name alongside mine, and for that, I am very thankful. Dharmendra sir… I think we come from the same state. He has contributed immensely to Indian cinema. If you say so, I accept this statement to one per cent, but I am nowhere near him. I need his blessings, his prayers.”

The singer continued, “When I started my journey, I only had one goal – to appear on TV. I began with singing, and through that, I made my way onto TV. Now, with my interest in movies, I’m making my way onto TV through films.”

He added, “All the superstars of India, who have done a lot of work in their lives, whom we all have started to love cinema by watching, need their blessings. But once you mentioned the great Dharmendra sir, I want you to make some noise for Dharmendra sir.”
