Punjabi singer Mani Longia who is known for his tracks Din Vaar Vaar, Balle Balle has found himself right in the middle of a controversy. The Punjabi singer was recently performing live on stage when towards the end of his show some fans requested him to sing singer Sidhu Moosewala’s songs.
Mani denied this request saying that although he respects Sidhu a lot, he is not Sidhu Moosewala and he will not sing his songs. Not only this, Mani went ahead to target Punjabi singers who are still cashing on Sidhu’s death by posting his pictures and pictures of his father, Balkaur Singh Sidhu. This explanation did not go down well with his fans who came down strongly on the singer threatening to cancel his show.
Later, Mani Longia also went live on his social media account to explain why he reacted in a certain way. He explained everything in detail without mincing words. The singer said he does not believe in fake show off, and that he respects Sidhu Moosewala from his heart, and he need not prove it to anyone.
