Singer-actor Amit Tandon recently put up a cover version of the song ‘Dil Ko Karaar Aaya’, the video of that features the late Sidharth Shukla and Neha Sharma. However, he ended up being majorly trolled by Sidharth’s fans who accused him of using the late actor for publicity. Amit speaks to mid-day.com and shares his thoughts.
The unexpected trolling for ‘Dil Ko Karaar Aaya’ must have come as a shock…
I had been doing covers since the last few months and 20-25 songs are out already. The song was not a tribute to Sidharth. I wasn’t very close to him and only met him a few times. I tagged Sidharth Shukla and Shehnaaz Gill because their fans would associate with the song in a different way. The idea was that even a small memory would bring a smile on their faces. Instead, here I got at least a 1000 DMs abusing me and even my daughter. All jokes aside while 60 percent nasty, there were others who said they loved the song and I shouldn’t listen to trolls. I’ve given tributes to Rishi Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna who are bigger stars but no one reacted this way. People told me I’m trending but I have no interest in trending for something like this! If people abuse me, I will speak up. If you give me love, I will love you back. Now people close to me have made me promise I won’t give attention to any more trolls. In fact when Sidharth was in Bigg Boss, I was more in favour of Asim Riaz, so gaaliyan padna waise bhi expected hi tha.
