Let's not give it a religious tinge: Sunil on Sonu's tweet
Comedian Sunil Grover, while supporting singer Sonu Nigam on his tweet about the use of loudspeakers in temples, mosques and gurudwaras, has asked people not to give it a "religious tinge". Sonu Nigam had tweeted on Monday that he is not a Muslim and still has to be woken up by the Azaan in the morning.
Sonu Nigam's tweet regarding waking up to azaan stirred up a storm and people on social media seem to be divided over his remark on the issue. While there were few who said that it showed his insensitivity towards other religions, the others said that he was correct in speaking up against the loudspeaker usage at religious places.  Last night comedian Sunil Grover supported the singer and tweeted, "I know @sonunigam sir he won't hurt anyone's religious sentiments ever. He respects all. Let's not misinterpret n give it a religious tinge."
