Salman Khan plays down Arijit issue

Bollywood superstar Salman Khan yesterday remained dismissive when asked about the public apology rendered to him by singer Arijit Singh over a song from his upcoming film “Sultan”. When asked about Arijit's apology, the star said twice even before the question was complete, “Who is that?”

“In every film there are lot of singers who sing and director and producer who make the choice of who is going to be the best voice for the film. One voice was mine but that was also rejected, so why get so upset and so hurt. This is life,” Salman said.

Arijit had recently posted an apology to the Salman Khan on Facebook and pleaded with him to retain a version of a song crooned by him in “Sultan”. He later deleted the post. According to reports, the song “Jag Ghoomeya” was initially recorded by Arijit but it was re-recorded in Rahat Fateh Ali Khan's voice, while Salman has also crooned another version of it.
