Indian Idol 12 is already marred by several controversies.
After the show’s recent episode serving as a tribute to the late Kishore Kumar, was criticized by the late legend’s fans, for delivering lackluster and underwhelming performances, the show has ignited further debate by bringing in their former judge – Anu Malik.
Malik who has been associated with the show since it’s very first season back in the early 2000’s, was recently under the radar after a number of #MeToo allegations were raised against him.
The composer was accused of sexual misconduct in the past, however none of it took the legal route or was proven in the court of law.
But the accusations still managed to mar his public image, as the show’s fans are now enraged seeing him brought back in spite of all that he has been accused of.
INDIAN Idol is going extremely well but the appearance of Anu Malik by BACK DOOR is deplorable. Why SONY is encouraging a Womenizer in this show.

Is it fair to include him in the show again with all that he has been accused of in the past?
