Indian singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya went on an abusive rampage on Instagram after news of sexual harassment allegations against him started making the rounds.
When the harassment allegations made headlines, Abhijeet's response was: "Most of the fat and ugly girls are blaming and I wasn’t born at that time." The statement, predictably, drew widespread criticism on both sides of the border, which Abhijeet has been handling very poorly.
Far from apologising or taking time for to reflect on his words or actions, Abhijeet has instead been lashing out at commenters on Instagram, particularly Pakistanis, leaving hateful replies to comments that criticised his statement about his accusers.
The tirade kept getting worse.
The singer has been accused of sexual harassment by a former flight attendant at a Kolkata pub in 1998; she shared that Abhijeet grabbed her wrist and pulled her closer after she already refused to dance with him.
She further added that her saying no angered him and he screamed in her ear, “B***h, what do you think of yourself, wait till I teach you a lesson,” before almost kissing and nibbling her ear.
Bhattacharya has denied the allegations, stating that "she is blatant lying".
"No one deserves (the attention). Just to grab some attention they are coming out. Most of the fat and ugly girls are blaming and I wasn’t born at that time."

He has gone nuts, has absolutely no shame.
This guy is a low life who thrives on hate!
Who's he btw?
His career is dead. These are his final options to stay afloat.
He has no grace or shame.
it's the proverb in Urdu, a dog's tail... he won't ever stop at bashing us! Canoot realises that his time 's over.
The less said about such people the better. Ignore them.
The most abominable person not worth even commenting about. Once he even insulted the great Lataji.
Abhijeet Bhattacharya is nothing but a trash, no one should pay attention to him and put him in jail for his inappropriate behavior.
The ugly of the ugliest labeling women fatty & ugly, a rotten egg complaining stink in the atmosphere, a dirty crow is pretending peacock, a failure finding the excuses. The inhuman and fanatic approach leads to putting the person in an anonymous place.
Surprisingly no comments from India defending him. He is doing what Indian politicians do when in trouble blame Pakistan.
I think he is trying to divert public attention from the #Metoo accusation against him and for gaining Indian public support by criticizing Pakistanis. He will still remain a sexual predator.
Just imagine, when his demand was finished, he said "Atif Aslam do not know how to sing." He is gone and Atif Aslam is still in demand in India .
Dude has lost his marbles. Racist and sexist
Abhijeet is a Kalank on India's fabric.
rubbish guy
They may be fat and ugly but they have prestige and self respect so they refused to be played in yur hand. Also, if they are fat and ugly, you are no hollywood hero either. Don’t divert people's attention from real issue by making it a Pakistan/India issue to gain some radical sympathizers.
Pakistanis should not pay attention to this old fool. We Indians don't, either.
His comments are idiotic.
@jawwad Why do you expect Indians support him? I condemn his behavior then and now.
You did the very same thing you accused Indian politicians of.
Comments in bad taste. There is no justification of ranting against Pakistani singers. They are great singers. Definitely not our culture. Even if a beggar is singing good, I will still listen and respect him. Let this guys words not spoil the already fragile relation.
@jawwad Why the surprise. Do you think we Indians will actually defend someone like him?
Dont know him but so cheap
Cant sing, cant act, cant talk, he is fit for bollywood.
