Anu Malik
After singers Sona Mohapatra and Neha Bhasin renewed their protests against Anu Malik being reinstated as a judge on Indian Idol, the channel is apparently doing a rethink. There's talk that he might be asked to quit the reality show. Last year, in the wake of the #MeToo movement, after he was called out, he had left the show mid-way.
Anu Malik was accused by singers Sona Mohapatra and Shweta Pandit of sexual harassment. Shweta Pandit remembered the time when she was 15 and had met Malik at a studio in Andheri, where he had demanded a kiss in return for a song. When mid-day reached out to Malik, he called the allegations "false and per se defamatory". He said, "I want to give a detailed reply after ascertaining the correctness [of the account]."
