The news of Sonakshi Sinha being a part of Justin Bieber’s India concert broke the internet, but not in a good way. Yesterday, we told you how Kailash Kher maintained that Sona’s singing act is not a healthy sign for Indian singing artistes and also how Sonakshi got in a war of words sorts with singer Armaan Malik. Well, in rather new development, we learnt from Noor‘s social media handles, that she’s not performing at all at the Bieber concert. Huh?!
Sonakshi took to Twitter to clear the air on the whole matter, which was meted with a lot of criticism.

Even in yesterday’s Tweet thread of Sonakshi-Armaan Malik, the other Mallik brother got involved. Amaal had asked Sonakshi if she was mistaking Armaan for him. But that confusion got cleared yesterday itself.
Speaking to Mumbai Mirror, Amaal took a stand on the whole actors-singing-at-international concert issue and said,
“I feel when an international singing icon tours our country, it is important to put forward our own icons, like Arijit Singh, KK, Sonu Nigam, Armaan. India has some incredible talent that should represent us at such big international gigs.”
He further said about actors singing for films is okay, but on stage….not really.
About Sonakshi’s tweet stating Maliks approaching her for a collaboration, Amaal revealed that they were open to the idea but it was the brainchild of Sonakshi’s team, not theirs.
Aaah! So, is it just me or the whole matter is getting more twisted?
