Arijit Singh likely to sing for Salman Khan’s next movie

-

After his infamous public apology to Salman Khan and the controvers­y that followed, Arijit Singh would have never thought he will sing for the Dabangg star. However, the singer is set to croon a song for Kabir Khan’s next Tubelight starring Salman.

When asked about it, Arijit said, “Well, I will sing in ‘Tubelight’ again. But after that, what will happen I don’t know. But I will definitely sing because nobody can stop me from singing a song. “Phir uske baad kya decision hoga woh toh unke upar hai(referring to Salman). Unki naarazgi kitni hai un pe depend karta hai),” he said.

Arijit had stirred the hornet’s nest by posting an apology to Salman on Facebook over some misunderst­anding in an award function. He had requested Salman to retain the version of a song crooned by him in Sultan. Rahat Fateh Ali Khan’s version was retained in the movie.

The 29-year-old Tumhi Ho-fame singer said he has not spoken to the Bajrangi Bhaijaan star after the controvers­y but hopes to do so in the future. “No, I didn’t speak to him. I didn’t get a chance to speak to him. Maybe, I’ll get a chance someday and then I will but I don’t think he takes these things that seriously. Everybody else made the matter serious,” he said. Arijit also insisted that there are no ill feelings between the two and that the 50-year-old actor does not even pay heed to such things. “There is no ill-will from his side either. He has a lot of work in his life, he is not bothered about such things. He works so hard and makes these films. We are entertaine­d. Look at ‘Sultan’. It has created so much awareness about a lot of things. He has got nothing to do with this silly small thing. Baaki logo ko padi hai, unko (Salman) nahi,” he said.
