Labh targets ‘Satya’ song ‘Spane mei milti hai’
The famous punjabi singer Labh was unhappy about the Punjabi lyrics wrongly used in bollywood films. According to him many hindi and punjabi lyricists lacked knowledge in their language and wrote ‘senseless’ lyrics. Labh talked about the famous song from film ‘Satya’ sung by Asha Bhosle and Suresh Wadkar. According to Labh, the lyrics ‘Sapne mein milti hai, o kudi meri sapne mein milti hai’ do not talk about lovers. He says, ‘Kudi meri’ in punjabi represents a father talking about his daughter ‘Beti meri’ and vis-a-vis ‘Munda mera’ is about someone’s son. Labh said.. “had it been ‘Kudi mainu sapne mein milti hai”, it would’ve conveyed the right meaning.
“The song ‘Phatte tak nachna’ does not mean anything”
Another song that troubled Labh due to the ‘wrongly’ used punjabi lyrics was the latest song from Sonam Kapoor and Fawad Khan starrer ‘Khoobsurat’s ‘Phatte tak nachna’. Labh says that the punjabi expression ‘Chak de Phatte’ is used inappropriately in this song. “It does not mean anything, instead it should be ‘Phatte chak nachna’, Says Labh.
“Award Shows lack transparency”
Labh also criticized the ‘Award Shows’ system in Bollywood. Labh said there is no transparency in such shows and the “setting for awards is done beforehand”. According to Labh, such Award Shows lack credibility and that’s why he did not attend any of these shows.
“The singers with hit songs should be given awards”
Labh believed that the singers of hit songs must get the award. He said… “In every award show such hit songs are played and people dance to the tunes but the awards are given to soft-melodious songs(mocks at them)”. However Labh did not regret not receiving many awards but expressed content with the love of people he received for his famous songs. He said, “bikne wala award mujhe nahi chahiye” (I do not want the award that sells)
“Industry should give chance to newcomers”
Labh, like many other singers, in his initial stage of career had to struggle but He had a complain against the industry. According to Labh, the makers used to close doors at his face saying “you are a newcomer”. He said “Jo naam wale artist thae wo andar studio mei baithe rehte thae. Naya purana to tab ho jab aap gaana sun lo”.
Fraud by a Record Label of UK :
