'Below my dignity to sing for Bhatts'

The Other Side

u00a0 Pooja Bhatt said,u00a0 "It is tragic that Abhijeet chooses to make a connection between the Bhatts giving a platform to artists from Pakistan and David Headley. This view is myopic and delusional. Music and cinema has no boundaries and artists are not meant to let politics colours their art. This mindset is dangerous and no different from the mindset that bans Parzania and pulls down Tum Mile from theaters.u00a0

He added: "I have refused to sing for the Bhatts as it is below my dignity to be associated with people who are probably 'agents for Pak artists'. There is a difference between promoting a culture and promoting a profession. Their 'mental recession' is visible from their line of flop films that are mere copies of Hollywood films and tunes taken from anywhere and everywhere."

Abhijeet cleared the fact that he did not want to talk about the Bhatts and David Headley connection. "I did not blame Rahul Bhatt; it's the media that has brought out a possible terror link. For the Bhatts it's a case ofu00a0 'you reap what you sow'."

Did You know?

u00a0 Rahul Bhatt (pictured) reportedly came into contact with LeT operative David Headley through Vilas Warak, the American's gym instructor in Mumbai. u00a0 Once that contact was made, Headley ignored Warak, Intelligence sources said.

"After Kargil and numerous terror attacks and now 26/11 do we want to still dance and sing to their tunes? Would the family's massacred innocent victims sing the song and forget the wounds? I have the guts to stand for what I have been screaming my lungs out for,"u00a0 said an angry Abhijeet. "I am a true son of the soil who will fight for his motherland."

Implying he wasn't insecure about work, he said: " I have survived in this industry for what I am. I have built an empire that many filmy people can't even dream of. Because of that I am surviving among hypocrites and rotten industry-wallas."
