Had to wait for six long hours- recollects Sona Mohapatra
The fire of nepotism has still not waved down. The spark has not yet died off. Singer Sona Mohapatra spoke out her thoughts on Bollywood's favouritism and nepotism in an interview with a leading daily. She also revealed an incident with actor Sonakshi Sinha from a music awards show, when she had to sit through a music awards show for six hours which should have been wrapped up in just two hours. Explaining the reason, she said that it happened because Sonakshi Sinha was not prepared and was having trouble reading the teleprompter. The singer added that she kept thinking about how the audience is ''okay with the mediocrity''
Sona Mohapatra was further asked if she agreed with people's opinion that there is also a music mafia in place. The singer said that the country is a nepotistic one. Also that the veterans of the industry need to think it through before they say something because they are affecting the entire country in the grace that they exude. Mohapatra further said that though nepotism is not illegal, she believes that people who support nepotism are ''digging their own graves''.
Sona added that she has always rooted for a music industry independent of films.
