Indian Idol has been one of the most popular TV shows and it has given some of the most talented singers to the industry. The 12th season of the show also received a huge popularity. Winner of the show Pawandeep Rajan and first runner-up Arunita Kanjilal have landed in legal trouble. According to the reports they refused to shoot and promote the music album by M/s Octopus Entertainment Pvt Ltd.
According to the legal note, M/s Octopus Entertainment Pvt Ltd approached Indian Motion Picture Producers’ Association and informed them that M/s Sony Pictures Network India Private Limited had entered into an agreement with them for providing services of Pawandeep and Arunita, winners of Indian Idol 2021, who were signed by their members for a romantic album of 20 songs.
According to the agreement, “Sony had agreed to provide services of both the artistes and the commitment was made before they became the winners of Indian Idol. Their member at great expense had announced the launch of the album at a press conference but the artistes did not cooperate with the producer after shooting for one song. First Arunita and after that Pawandeep stopped cooperating with the producer in shooting and for the promotion and release of the songs despite Sony’s commitment.
When Sony was informed they did not take any action but instead were supportive of the artist and when IMPPA asked Sony for their comments, they refused to do so saying that this particular company of Sony was not a member of IMPPA but other companies of Sony were. They said this company only deals with producer members for matters of films,web series as well as serials.
Therefore, IMPPA has requested them to ensure that no injustice is done with the producers and the artists perform the services which they will have committed on behalf of the artist.”
While Pawandeep is the winner of Indian Idol 12, Arunita became the first runner-up. Both of them had an amazing chemistry on the singing reality TV show and were much loved by fans.
