Pop icon Dua Lipa made headlines recently, and not just for her smashing concert in Mumbai, but for the surprise element on a Bollywood track. The global artist performed on stage on a fan-made mashup of her song Levitating and Shah Rukh Khan’s popular number “Wo Ladki Jo” from his film Baadshah, on her gig in India on Saturday night. However, the mashup didn’t go down well with the song’s singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya and his son Jay as they were quite bothered with social media users and media outlets.

While netizens were excited to see Dua’s act and couldn’t stop flooding videos of Levitating X Woh Ladki on the internet, Abhijeet’s son Jay called out social media users and media outlets for not crediting his father for the song and only focusing on SRK. Taking to his Instagram account, he wrote, “The problem is that no one talks about it. What happened to- “Woh Ladki Jo”- Abhijeet? Unfortunately we live in a country where not one news outlet or Instagram page has mentioned the voice and the artists of this song. Why has it always been about actors in this country? I’m sure when @dualipa heard this song she must have heard it and not seen it and not appreciated the man that has sung this song and yes it is not SRK.”

He added, “It is @abhijeetbhattacharya and @anumalikmusic. Im sorry but this song is called “Woh Ladki Jo sabse alag hai”- Abhijeet wherever you search it. but somehow the media in this country never lets a singer get his due and then people ask me why don’t you try and sing for Bollywood. This is not about Shahrukh Khan. I am his biggest fan ever. This is about our audience and our media who don’t support the singers of our country like they do in the west.” The Story was reshared by Abhijeet on his Instagram handle, among other fan made posts.
