Amaal Mallik lashes out: My songs are my babies, I’m a dangerous dad

Composer Amaal Mallik has strongly criticized the negative PR surrounding his song 'Yeh Awarapan' from the recent film 'Awarapan 2'. The 40-year-old musician expressed his frustration on Instagram, emphasizing that his music is deeply personal and meaningful to him. He stated, "My songs are my babies... I'm a dangerous dad." Mallik further defended his work, saying, "You can't touch what I've built... keep at it and you'll waste your entire life."

The composer pointed out that his song in the film is being criticized for incorporating elements from the first part of the 'Awarapan' franchise. He explained that despite the film being a commercial failure in 2007, it has since gained a cult following, demonstrating the power of soul and self-belief. Mallik also took a swipe at the industry's practice of corporate bookings, questioning the necessity of purchasing clicks and views for music videos.

In closing, he thanked his fans for their support and love, while expressing disbelief that his work could be targeted and undermined.
