In the post shared on Thursday, Amaal Malik, the elder son of renowned musician Daboo Malik and nephew of famous singer Anu Malik, also blamed his parents for the growing distance between him and his brother, musician Armaan Malik.

“I’ve reached a point where I can no longer keep silent about the pain I’ve endured. For years, I’ve been made to feel like I am less, despite spending days and nights toiling away to create a safe life for people. I cancelled every dream of mine, only to find myself being spoken down to and questioned about what I’ve ever done. I have spent my blood, sweat, and tears to create each of the 126 melodies that have been released over the last decade,” read a part of the post.

Amaal Malik made his debut as a composer in 2014 with Salman Khan’s Jai Ho.
