Sonakshi Sinha, Armaan Malik argue on Twitter after singer asks actors to ‘leave singers’ playground’

Agree with @Kailashkher sir! Actors are actors & singers are singers. Leave the stage & mic to us, that’s our playground not yours. 🎤 https://t.co/fAezwNkTDF

Quick to post an equally strong reply, Sonakshi wrote that a secure artiste would never discourage others. “A secure artist would always encourage another artist to grow their skills and follow their dreams. Art in any form should not be suppressed.”

She even questioned Armaan’s opinion, saying that why did he approach her earlier for a track if he was against actors turning musicians. “And this is definitely not the same tune you were singing when you wanted me to sing for you,” she wrote.

This resulted into an argument between the two, where even Armaan’s brother, Amaal Malik, jumped in. Armaan replied to her, saying that his previous tweet was a means to express his displeasure over the disparity between popularity of actors and singers in the country. “I agree with you Sonakshi.. but I voiced what I felt about how singers are shunned in our country & given lesser importance than actors!!” Armaan wrote to her.

To her claim that he offered her to sing for him, Armaan wrote that it wasn’t him but his music composer brother Amaal Malik who had made the offer. “You are mistaking me for Amaal Malik he is the composer :)” read his tweet. To which she tweeted, “Of course I know Amaal is the composer but I clearly remember you both coming up to me after an event a while back asking to do a song together.”
