According to reports, an ugly disagreement between two people over Sonu Nigam¡¯s tweets lead to a violent fight between both, following which one of them stabbed the other.
This incident happened on Wednesday in Gopalpura region in Madhya Pradesh¡¯s Ujjain district. If reports are to be believed the heated argument occurred between Shivam Rai, who supported the playback singer's stand on Facebook. To extend his support to his favourite singer Sonu Nigam, he posted on FB but this offended the accused, Mohammad Nagori and Faizan Khan.
And what followed was a heated argument between the three. A Hindustan Times report quoted Rai saying,
"Later, they asked me to meet them in Freeganj area. When I reached there with my friend, Ayush Shreewas, they attacked us with knives.¡±
Even though Rai managed to escape, his friend has been hospitalized due to injury. A case of attempted murder against the accused under Section 307 of the Indian Penal Code has been filed by the police.
This brings us to yet another reality check-Fans forget the line between fandom and insanity. So much for favoritism? Sigh.
