Singer Sonu Nigam and T-Series’ head Bhushan Kumar have buried the hatchet. Things between the two had turned sour in 2020.

A source says, “Aamir Khan (actor) wanted only Sonu to sing a song (Main Ki Karaan?) in Laal Singh Chaddha (2022), whose music was owned by T-Series. Bhushan extended an olive branch. They met and talked things out. They decided to let bygones be bygones. Sonu sang the title track for Shehzada (co-produced by Bhushan) and two songs in Adipurush. Things are fine now.”

Sonu says, “Let’s not make a big deal out of it. Peace and love should prevail eventually.”

Bhushan chose not to respond.

In 2020, when Sonu spoke about the music “mafia” on social media, people assumed it was Bhushan, though the former didn’t take names. Then an article appeared, where some singers reacted to Sonu’s nepotism claims. In another video, Sonu called it a “press release” and said, “You have messed with the wrong person.”

He made digs at Bhushan, asking if he remembers “Abu Salem (gangster)” and model Anupama Kuwar aka “Marina Kuwar”, who accused Bhushan of sexual misconduct. In retaliation, Bhushan’s wife, actor Divya Khosla Kumar, shared a video implying Sonu was connected to the underworld and said he owed his career to her father-in-law, late Gulshan Kumar.
