So Babul ji is a singer-turned-politician who happens to be a member of the BJP (the Bharati Jyanta Party)

We know what you’re thinking: ek aur azaab…

 

And he thinks that Atif Aslam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan should be banned from singing in Bollywood because they’re Pakistani…

He said before that he didn’t have an issue with either Atif or Rahat Fateh Ali Khan singing in Bollywood, but he does have an issue with their Pakistani nationality…

 

He said that he doesn’t understand why there needs to be cross-border entertainment when tensions between India and Pakistan are on a high

That in the upcoming film “Welcome To New York” there is a song that Rahat Fateh Ali Khan has sung and that the makers of the film should dub it over with someone else’s voice immediately.

 

Continuing, he said that he still doesn’t know why Atif Aslam was chosen to sing the insanely viral song “Dil Diyan Gallan” from Salman Khan’s “Ek Tha Tiger”

Especially when their own Arijit Singh could have done a much better job at it…okay then… He was annoyed with FM stations playing a song sung by a Pakistani while their soldiers are dying because of ‘Pakistan-sponsored agents’. He also said that the government might want to exercise some restraint when it comes to using Pakistani artists in Bollywood films. But with all due respect, Supriyo ji, aap ki filmein chalti hain humaari wajah se…

 

However, when the news broke, people flipped out completely on both sides of the border
