In a shocking turn of events, ace Bollywood singer Sonu Singam has slammed T Series head honcho, Bhushan Kumar and tagged him as the mafia of the music industry. The singer in his new VLog on social media has accused Kumar of mentally exploiting the singers in B-town and also asking them to gang up against him. The incident was highlighted after Sonu in one of his early Instagram post suggested how new talent is not welcomed in the music industry.

Sonu was merely reacting to Sushant Singh Rajput's suicide while suggesting that many such raw talents are waiting for an opportunity and if not given a chance, they may follow the same path in future. While he didn't mention a name earlier, the singer in his recent interaction has slammed Bhushan Kumar for killing many such dreams. He further revealed how Kumar used to beg him in his early days for signing music albums and would also ask him to help him get connected with politicians like Balasaheb Thackeray. Sonu even recalled the time Bhushan received threats from underworld gangster, Abu Salem and later highlighted the sexual assault incident with Marina Kuwar.
