Monali Thakur reacts to 'Music Mafia' claims; says 'artists don't get their dues'

The nepotism debate and the existence of 'movie and music mafia' have resurfaced on social media recently and reacting to the same, Monali Thakur backed the claims and revealed that nobody gets their due in the music industry. Monali Thakur also revealed that she does not like the atmosphere of the industry and has now stopped looking for chances to sing for Bollywood films.

Adding to the same, Monali Thakur revealed that she has ‘alienated’ herself from the industry, as artists do not get their dues paid. Citing an example, Monali Thakur explained that if a singer signs up with a label then they will have to give away 80 per cent or 50 per cent of their income and have their royalty rights snatched away. Furthermore, Monali Thakur remarked that all artists get paid from their live concerts.
