Mumbai: Popular Bollywood singer and music composer Amaal Mallik recently made a shocking statement that the industry trying to target and sideline Kartik Aaryan just like it did with late Sushant Singh Rajput.
Amaal alleged that powerful Bollywood producers and actors are conspiring against Kartik as they want to get rid of him from the industry.
“The public has understood the reality of this industry… itni dark hai ki logo ki life chali gayi. Sushant Singh Rajput nahi handle kar paaye. Jo bhi unke saath hua, some blame it as murder, some blame it as suicide. Jo bhi ho, aadmi toh chala gaya na. (This industry is so dark that people lost their lives. Sushant Singh Rajput couldn’t handle it. Whatever happened to him, be it suicide or murder, but a life is lost),” Amaal told Mirchi Plus.
“Iss industry ne hi kuch kiya hai unke mind pe ya unke soul pe. Ya logon ne saath main unko demoralise kiya. Yeh industry aisi jagah hai. Jab voh baat saamne aayi, common man ka sentiment against Bollywood hatt gaya… They said, ‘Screw these guys. Yeh log gande log hain.’ (It is the impact of this industry on his mind and soul..people here demoralised him. This industry is like this. When all this came to light, common man lost tehir sentiments against Bollywood. They said, ‘Screw these guys. They are bad people),” he added.
“Publicly kabhi industy ki band nahi baji… Sushant Singh Rajput ki death ne inn logo ka sab cheen liya. Deserving bhi hai, they deserve to see this downfall. Acche aadmi ke saath galat hua. Aaj aap dekho, vohi cheezein, indirectly ya directly Kartik Aaryan ke saath karne ka bhi try karte hain log. Voh bhi unhi problems se joojh ke, dance karte hue nikla hai, smile karte hue. (This industry was never slammed publicly. Sushant Singh Rajput’s death taught them a lesson. They deserve this. They wronged a good man. Today, you see, they are trying to do the same, directly or indirectly, with Kartik Aaryan. He also went through the same. He danced and smiled his way through these problems),” Amaal explained.
“But uske peeche uske mummy, papa sab saath hain to support and guide him. He’s also a newcomer who has come in, done his bit, usko bhi 100 log hatane ke firaaq main hain. Power play karte hain. Sab kuch karte hain bade bade producers, actors. (He has his mother and father to support and guide him. He is also a newcomer who has come in, done his bit. There are around 100 people who want to get him removed. There is power play in industry. All this is done by big producers and actors),” he concluded.
