Sona Mohapatra slams ‘Indian Idol 11’ for having #MeToo accused Anu Malik back; gets support from Neha Bhasin

Anu Malik has been in the headlines for a while now after being called out in the Me Too movement. The singer has gotten many personalities in the industry furious over his return to ‘Indian Idol’s latest season. Recently, singer Sona Mohapatra criticized the composer and Sony TV for having him back on ‘Indian Idol 11’ in one of her posts to which singer Neha Bhasin replied revealing a horrific incident involving Anu.

Sona Mohapatra took to her Twitter handle to express her disdain over Anu Malik being back on ‘Indian Idol 11’. In her post, she wrote, “It takes only a Nirbhaya level tragedy for #India to wake up? Few days after these,I was asked to leave my judge seat. My co-judge told me,the publicity I provided to Anu Malik took up the TRPS of our ‘rival’ show. (?!) A year later,a sexual predator is back on the same seat.”

To Sona’s post singer Neha Bhasin replied revealing an incident with Anu Malik. She called Anu a predator and said she was 21 when she met him and he was lying on a sofa talking about her eyes. Neha fled away from the scene cooking up a lie.

Later Sona wrote to Sony Pictures narrating Neha’s situation and many other incidents she knew of about Malik. She wrote, “Dear India,media @SonyPictures , @nehabhasin4u was all of 21, @ShwetaPandit7 was 15 when he tried kissing her,his family doctors daughter was 14 when he unzipped.”

I have known the spunky,driven & talented @nehabhasin4u since her Viva days & know she would’ve dealt with the trauma bravely w/o succumbing.I also know 2 many who were victimised! Youngsters & parents on a reality show are desperate to win & Anu Malik has been judge for 11yrs?
