Rahul Vaidya Says He Might Unfollow ‘Some Stars' On Instagram. Here's Why
Rahul Vaidya pointed out how some people, before you follow them, always like, comment and react to your stories. Rahul Vaidya has never been the one to mince his words. Whether it's on stage, in interviews or on social media, the singer always says exactly what is on his mind, and his latest post is proof. Now, his latest note on Instagram Stories has once again grabbed attention, where he declared that he would be unfollowing some of the 'stars' on the photo-sharing application. In the post, Rahul pointed out how some people, before you follow them, always like, comment and react to your stories. He further emphasised how they suddenly start acting like full-on 'stars." Ending his note with a playful jab, he said he would unfollow a few of these 'stars" soon because they don't need him anymore. The note read, 'Kya aapke bhi life me bhi aise log hain jinko aapne jab tak follow nahi kiya tha tab tak like, comment, story pe react karte the? And after you followed them, wo achanak 'STAR" ban gaye.. Gonna unfollow some stars soon. You guys don't need me at all. You are Stars after all. (Do you also have people in your life who, until you followed them, would like, comment and react to your stories? And after you followed them, they suddenly became a 'STAR'? Gonna unfollow some stars soon. You guys don't need me at all — you are stars after all)." Rahul Vaidya On Reality Shows Singer Rahul Vaidya, who rose to fame as a contestant on the popular singing reality show 'Indian Idol," went on to participate in several reality shows, including Bigg Boss, where he emerged as a runner-up. According to him, he never initially planned to be part of more reality television shows. Speaking to IANS, Rahul shared, 'I have never planned my life; I actually never do. I just take it as it comes, and I never thought of doing a reality show, even though my career started with a reality show, Indian Idol. Bigg Boss happened just by chance, and also because it was Covid, because of which I chose to do it. So, everything just followed." Rahul Vaidya On Laughter Chefs Rahul Vaidya was last seen in Laughter Chefs, which was a welcoming change for him as he showcased his comic timing and culinary skills. About the show, he said, 'When I used to go to a show before Laughter Chefs, people used to tell me they still haven't forgotten your participation in Indian Idol. Now people have somehow stopped talking about it because I think they like Laughter Chefs more." Rahul Vaidya also took part in Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 11, where he reached the finals.

Daboo Malik breaks silence on brother Anu Malik's MeToo controversy; recalls family's struggle and pain; says parents ‘couldn't understand what was happening'
Trigger warning: This article contains references to the MeToo movement . Music composer Daboo Malik has spoken candidly about the emotional toll his family endured when his elder brother, celebrated composer Anu Malik , was accused of sexual harassment during India's MeToo movement in 2018. Read on to know more. Daboo Malik opens up on Anu Malik's controversy In an interview with journalist Vickey Lalwani, Daboo admitted the period 'shattered' the family. 'He was taken aback, and so were we. We couldn't handle the pain he went through, with so many people targeting him. We stood by him emotionally and ensured he found his footing again in terms of work and meetings,' Daboo shared. He refrained from passing judgment, emphasising that witnessing a loved one suffer was reason enough to offer support. Daboo Malik on how parents were left bewildered One of the most painful aspects, Daboo revealed, was watching their elderly parents struggle to comprehend the situation. 'They couldn't understand what was happening. They were in their 80s,' he said, describing how the controversy left them emotionally unsettled. For the family, navigating public perception and online chatter was challenging, but Daboo downplayed the idea that they were public figures of such magnitude. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Vasanthanagar Users Prefers Toothsi Aligners Toothsi by MakeO Book Now Undo 'We are musicians, not superstars like Shah Rukh Khan . Social media sometimes unnecessarily elevates people and issues,' he noted. The case on Anu Malik and its closure Anu Malik's name was one of the most prominent to emerge during the MeToo movement. Singers Sona Mohapatra , Neha Bhasin, Shweta Pandit, and Alisha Chinai levelled allegations of inappropriate conduct, with some incidents allegedly dating back decades. Malik consistently denied the claims, but the backlash forced him to step down from Indian Idol Season 10. He briefly returned in 2019 for Season 11 but resigned again. He cited an inability to concentrate on work amid ongoing public scrutiny. In January 2020, the National Commission for Women closed the case, citing insufficient evidence. They left the door open for it to be reopened if new information came to light. #MeToo movement: Sona Mohapatra to Sonu Nigam on backing Anu Malik
