Nora Fatehi's Debut in Sandalwood Faces Backlash
Nora Fatehi's latest track, Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke, from the upcoming Kannada film KD: The Devil, has stirred controversy shortly after its release.

In response to the backlash, singer Armaan Malik expressed his discontent with the song's lyrics on social media.

Social media users echoed similar sentiments, with one commenting, “Nora Fatehi's new song has crossed all the limits of vulgarity!” Another user criticized the lyrics, questioning the impact it might have on young audiences, suggesting that many girls would create reels to the song, which could be played in public spaces.
