Sona Mohapatra voices her opinion on the same

Singer Sona Mohapatra hailed Pooja Bhatt for discovering the new talent, but also suggested that he should get all the benefits of the music’s success. Sona Mohapatra wrote, “That is so nice Pooja. Your banner has been known to spot new talent for sure. Would mean so much more if these musicians had a stake in their music’s success? Everyone just ends up doing the favour of the ‘opportunity’ & this is an endless cycle in #Bollywood. Zero concept of IP.”

In another tweet, she cleared that she is not blaming Pooja Bhatt or Vishvesh films, but she described it as a systematic problem in India and Bollywood. Sona Mohapatra said music labels in India do not have an A&R in place that discovers, nurtures and promotes artists. She also referred to this as the music business’ 'biggest tragedy'. In a series of tweets, Sona Mohapatra stressed on the importance of artists earning money for their work. See the tweets by Sona Mohapatra here.
