Guru Randhawa’s song ‘Azul’ controversy

Guru Randhawa has been facing heavy criticism for his latest song, ‘Azul,’ for allegedly objectifying schoolgirls. In the music video of the song, Guru plays a photographer who goes to an all-girls school to take their class picture, and a simple photo op converts into a fantasy sequence. A lot of viewers found it ‘problematic.’

Guru Randhawa faces legal issues for ‘Sirra’

Amid all this, the singer has been summoned to a Ludhiana court. He has to appear on September 2 following a complaint filed by Rajdeep Singh Mann. The complaint alleges that the lyrics of Guru Randhawa’s latest track, ‘Sirra,’ are derogatory and promote drug use, according to The Indian Express.“Oh jatta de aa kaake balliye… jammeya nu gurti ch mili afeem hai,” this specific line of the song has led to the controversy. This roughly translates to “We are the sons of Jats. We got opium as our first food when we were born.”
