Salman Khan finally breaks his silence on ‘Hud Hud Dabangg’ song controversy

After ‘Bharat’, superstar Salman Khan is gearing up for the release of his second film of the year, ‘Dabangg 3’. In this third instalment of the hit ‘Dabangg’ franchise, Salman will be reprising his role of Chulbul Pandey. Just a few days back, the makers of ‘Dabangg 3’ had unveiled its title track. While the song became a huge hit, certain sections of the audience were not happy with it.

A religious outfit had objected to the way Sadhus were portrayed in the ‘Hud Hud Dabangg’ song. Salman has finally shared his views on this ongoing controversy.

Last night at the song launch of ‘Munna Badnaam Hua’, addressing the reports of these outrage against the ‘Hud Hud Dabangg’ song, Salman said, “Aisi controversy toh aati jaati rehti hai. (Pointing at Warina Hussain) yeh inke film ki title ki controversy bhi thi which has now been cleared. It has been dismissed.”

For the unversed, Warina’s debut film ‘Loveratri’ was renamed at ‘LoveYatri’ due to controversy.

The actor added further, “It (‘Hud hud Dabangg’) is our song since the beginning. People are just trying to get two minutes of fame by linking themselves with us. They try to gain some publicity out of it and they get it too. Fans also support them. So, it’s good. I don’t have any issues with it.”

Earlier, the song’s choreographer, Shabina Khan while talking about the controversy it was mired with, told Times of India, “The song features sadhus dancing with guitars. Now, these are not real sadhus! These are dancers in a sadhu get-up performing choreographed steps. We shot the song in Maheshwar in Madhya Pradesh. I think there is nothing disrespectful in the choreography of the song. If people scrutinise each and every move like this then how will we make movies?”

Also featuring Sonakshi Sinha, Saiee Manjrekar and Sudeep, ‘Dabangg 3’ is scheduled to hit the screens on December 20.
