The public feud between Amaal Mallik and Sachet–Parampara has taken yet another turn. After the music duo called out the former Bigg Boss 19 contestant for repeatedly claiming credit for Bekhayali from Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Kabir Singh , Amaal has now reacted to the allegations. Speaking to Zoom , Amaal Mallik said he has never taken credit for work that is not his. “I'll take the bullet but speak the truth.

The composer also stressed that he has always been careful about giving due credit. “ Kisika credit khaya? Nahi. Kabhi bola ki yeh gaana mera hai ya bola ki recreate nahi kiya?

Ex-India Star Slams BCCI Over Gill's Vice-Captaincy, Questions Samson's Snub

Former India batter Subramaniam Badrinath has questioned the team management over the continuous snub of Sanju Samson from the T20I side. He also slammed the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) brass for including Shubman Gill as vice-captain despite the batter's underwhelming stats in the format. Badrinath made the remarks on-air after Gill was dismissed for a golden duck during the second T20I between India and South Africa. The 45-year-old admitted that it's a bit 'painful' to see Samson warm the bench despite scoring three T20I hundreds in the last 12 months. "Sanju Samson has scored three hundreds. We are talking about T20 cricket, and he has three hundreds. What more do you want as a player? It is a little painful to see a player who has performed so well warming the bench," said Badrinath, as quoted by India Today. Gill, on the other hand, has been below average in the format and has scored just 263 runs at an average of 23.90 in his last...

ICC Omits Pak Skipper Agha From T20 World Cup Ticket Sales Poster, PCB Reacts

The Pakistan Cricket Board is unhappy with the International Cricket Council after the global governing body released a promotional poster of next year's T20 World Cup ticket sales without the country's captain Salman Ali Agha on it. A reliable source in the PCB said the matter had been taken up with the ICC as the promotional poster featured only five captains — Suryakumar Yadav (India), Aiden Markram (South Africa), Mitchell Marsh (Australia), Dasun Shanaka (Sri Lanka) and Harry Brook (England). “We faced the same issues when the Asia Cup was held a few months back and that time the broadcasters had started a promotional campaign without our captain featuring in it,” the source said. He said it was only after the PCB spoke to the Asian Cricket Council (ACC), the situation changed. “We are facing a similar situation this time as the ICC has not projected our captain on the promotional poster for ticket sales,” he added. He said while Pakistan was not in the top five teams ...
