Sonu
Nigam's
Azaan
tweets
have
been
supported
as
well
as
criticised
by
many
actors.
Recently,
Sunil
Grover
came
in
support
of
the
singer
and
Indian
Idol
judge,
Sonu
Nigam.
Now,
the
Yeh
Hai
Mohabbatein
actress
has
supported
Sonu!
But,
Saathiya
actor
Mohammad
Nazim
has
criticised
Sonu's
Azaan
remarks.

the
actors
have

Divyanka
took
to
Twitter,
"Moderation
of
speaker
is
important
for
all.
Equal
regulations
needed
for
temples,
mosques,
gurudwaras
&
churches.
#CivicIssue
not
#Religious."
Mohammad
Nazim
On
Sonu’s
Azaan
Remarks…
In
an
interview
to
BollywoodLife,
Nazim
said,
"I
respect
all
religions.
I
reside
near
churches
and
temples
where
they
start
ringing
bells
from
6
in
the
morning
so
it
was
not
fair
of
him
to
talk
particularly
about
Azaan."
Sonu
Shouldn’t
Have
Said
It!
"One
should
not
make
an
issue
out
of
small
matters
like
these.
He
is
a
big
name
in
the
industry
and
he
is
setting
a
bad
example
in
front
of
the
commoners
by
talking
like
this.
It's
wrong!
He
shouldn't
have
said
it."
Sonu-Md.
Rafi
"When
Sonu
Nigam
entered
the
music
industry,
he
used
to
copy
Mohammad
Rafi.
Rafi
would
leave
his
songs
but
would
never
leave
his
prayers.
If
Sonu
considered
him
as
his
teacher
then
he
wouldn't
have
said
all
this."
Sonu
Is
Not
A
Kid!
"He
is
not
a
kid
after
all.
He
is
an
educated
guy.
He
did
a
similar
thing
sometime
ago
in
a
plane.
Why
does
he
do
all
this?"
‘I
Don’t
Have
The
Right
To
Judge
Him!’
"I
just
don't
understand.
But
it's
wrong.
I
am
not
saying
that
he
is
a
wrong
guy
but
what
he
has
said
is
absolutely
wrong.
I
can't
say
it's
wrong
because
I
don't
have
the
right
to
judge
him,
I
am
very
small."
Nazim
Further
Added…
"He
is
an
educated
guy,
who
is
well
known
in
the
entire
world.
What
will
people
think
if
a
man
of
his
stature
will
do
something
like
this.
Common
people
will
not
understand."
When
Nazim
was
told
that
Sonu
Nigam
had
shaved
his
head
after
a
Kolkata-based
cleric
announced
a
reward
of
Rs
10
Lakhs
to
anybody
who
can
tonsure
Sonu
Nigam
and
garland
him
with
old
shoes;
he
felt
the
Maulvi
was
equally
wrong
in
making
such
mindless
demands.
Nazim
said
that
shaving
the
singer's
head
is
not
going
to
make
any
difference.
The
Maulvi
should
have
instead
made
Sonu
realise
his
mistake
and
asked
him
not
to
repeat
it.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
recently,
comedian-actor
Sunil
Grover
had
supported
Sonu.
He
had
tweeted,
"I
know
@sonunigam
sir
he
won't
hurt
anyone's
religious
sentiments
ever.
He
respects
all.Lets
not
misinterpret
n
give
it
a
religious
tinge."
For
the
uninitiated,
the
singer
blew
up
a
controversy,
when
he
lashed
out
at
'forced
religiousness' in
India
after
being
woken
up
by
the
'azaan'
(Muslim
calls
for
prayer)
from
a
mosque,
near
his
home.
He
wrote,
"God
bless
everyone.
I'm
not
a
Muslim
and
I
have
to
be
woken
up
by
the
azaan
in
the
morning.
When
will
this
forced
religiousness
end
in
India."
Within
no
time,
he
was
trolled
by
Muslim
community
members
and
faced
severe
backlash
on
social
media
as
his
remarks
were
viewed
as
insensitive
towards
Muslims.
