Maniesh
is
currently
hosting
the
dance
reality
show
Nach
Baliye
9
on
Star
Plus.
On
the
other
hand,
Aditya
has
hosted
a
few
shows
like
Sa
Re
Ga
Ma
Pa
and
Rising
Star
3.
It
has
to
be
recalled
that
Anu
Malik
had
stepped
down
as
a
judge
mid-way
in
Season
10,
as
he
was
accused
of
sexual
misconduct
by
several
women
including
Shweta
Pandit
and
Sona
Mohapatra.
When
it
was
said
that
the
makers
were
planning
to
bring
Anu
Malik
back
as
a
judge
on
the
show,
Sona
had
reminded
Sony
TV
and
Indian
Idol
makers
of
the
music
composer's
sexual
harassment
cases.
Although
there
is
no
confirmation
regarding
Anu
Malik's
re-entry,
many
people
had
resonated
with
Sona's
anger
and
agreed
with
her
on
her
tweets.
With
such
a
rage,
we
wonder
if
it's
possible
for
the
makers
to
bring
him
back
on
the
show.
