Lata Mangeshkar responds to Tanmay Bhat’s Snapchat video

Local Press Co 5-point Snippet

1. AIB founder Tanmay Bhat managed made headlines yesterday after his controversial video titled ‘Sachin vs Lata Civil War’ went viral on social media.

2. Everyone from Bollywood personalities to politicians had an opinion on Bhat’s video with some standing up for him and others wanting to persecute the comic. Amid the controversy, the two Bharat Ratna recipients were probably the only ones who chose not to speak up.

3. But, when SpotBoye contacted the veteran singer to ask about her reaction to the video, she said, “I have not seen the video, neither do I have any inclination to do so. I will not comment about it.”

4. The leading entertainment portal also reported that while the singer is maintaining a brave front, a source close to her confirmed that she was very disturbed with the video.

5. Lataji also found surprising that her name was associated with cricketing legend Sachin Tendulkar or Team India captain Virat Kohli, with whom she has no history. But, the singer graciously ended the conversation with the SpotBoye reporter by stating, “By the way, I don’t know who is Tanmay Bhat.”
