Renowned Indian singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya is once again in the spotlight due to the debate surrounding his recent comments about the Bollywood actor who attended the inauguration of the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya. In a recent interview with Bollywood Thikana, Abhijeet indirectly expressed his disappointment with Ranbir Kapoor, stating that he was not pleased with Ranbir’s presence at the event.

He expressed his sadness and said, “When Ram Mandir was inaugurated, a person who eats beef was invited, aur aap Gau Mata keh rahe hain.”

The Pran Pratishtha ceremony at the Ram Mandir in Ayodhya was attended by many popular Bollywood stars, such as Amitabh Bachchan, Katrina Kaif, Vicky Kaushal, Alia Bhatt, and Ayushmann Khurrana. During the event, Abhijeet made a comment that seemed to be aimed at Ranbir Kapoor, which led to some heated discussions among fans.

About the controversy

In 2011, Ranbir Kapoor made a statement about eating beef during a television interview, which sparked controversy when it came up again in 2022. This happened while he was promoting his film “Brahmastra.” As a result, members of a group called Bajrang Dal protested and blocked him and his wife, Alia Bhatt, from entering the Mahakaleshwar Temple in Ujjain, Madhya Pradesh. The activists found his earlier comment offensive and announced that they would not let him enter the temple as a form of protest.

Abhijeet on Besharam

Abhijeet talked about the 2013 movie Besharam, where he performed the song ‘Dil Ka Jo Haal Hai’ with Shreya Ghoshal. He shared his thoughts on the film, reflecting on its themes and significance and said, “Thank God, I am not a singer of this era. I sang a song, ‘Dil Ka Jo Haal Hai,’ in a super flop film. The song wasn’t a hit. No one knows about the song’s film. However, if you play the song, you would know who sang it.”

Reacting to the flop film, he added, “Even if the floppiest song plays, people would know whose song it is, and not the hero or film attached to it. The property belongs to the music company. They have the rights, and we don’t get royalty. However, everyone has ears, and the voice that goes to the ear and heart is mine.”
