Shefali Jariwala is no more in this world. Shefali, famous as Kaanta Laga Girl, died of cardiac arrest on 27 June at the age of 42. After the actress’ death, Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru, who created the remix of Kaanta Laga, announced that they would not make a sequel to the song. In fact, last year Shefali Jariwala had revealed in a podcast that she wanted to be known as the Kaanta Laga girl till her last breath.
To fulfill this last wish of the actress, Radhika Rao and Vinay Sapru announced that they would never make a sequel to the Kaanta Laga song.After this announcement, famous singer Sona Mohapatra shared a post and took a dig at the directors without naming them. She wrote in her Instagram story, “3 bigwigs made Kaanta Laga. Music composer, lyricist and singer- RD Burman, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Lata Mangeshkar. Sona Mohapatra further wrote, “This is a completely false ‘retirement’ by people calling themselves ‘producers’ to get some PR from a death (Viral B is primarily a paywalled site).”
Sona Mohapatra further added, “These two have just made a porn video by remixing it with a 19 year old girl. (Of course, their xx interpretation doesn’t need permission from the veterans). RIP and this legacy for a 42 year old woman? And this India?” After this statement of Sona Mohapatra, there was an uproar on social media. People are calling her statement insensitive. She is being badly trolled for this, to which the singer has reacted.
He said, “To all those calling me insensitive, I want to say that do we agree that our music legends like RD Burman, Lata Mangeshkar, Majrooh Sultanpuri are slowly disappearing and getting disconnected from their creations?” He said, “To all those calling me insensitive, I want to say that do we agree that our music legends like RD Burman, Lata Mangeshkar, Majrooh Sultanpuri are slowly disappearing and getting disconnected from their creations?”
