Controversies | • Sidhu Moosewala was a close friend of Karan Aujla but a war of words began between the two when Karan allegedly leaked Sidhu’s songs before they were officially recorded. In 2018, Karan tried to defame Sidhu by releasing the songs ‘Up & Down’ along with Deep Jandu and Lafaafe with Sanam Bhullar. Moosewala responded to it by releasing his song ‘Warning Shots’ which pointed towards Karan. • A complaint was filed by Professor Dhanevar against Sidhu’s mother to the Director of Rural Development And Panchayats Department, SAS Nagar, Mohali. Dhanevar mentioned about the provocative songs sung by Charan Kaur’s son. However, later, she wrote an apology letter to him stating that her son would not sing such songs in future. |
