 Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam landed in trouble on Monday morning for his controversial tweets. The singer took to Twitter early in the morning when he found himself woken up by the morning Azaan from a mosque presumably near his house. The singer was apparently so displeased by the sound of Azaan that he termed it as "forced religiousness". Sonu then went on a Twitter rant as he put out a series of tweets on the subject and even questioned, "Why do I have to have this cacophony after Edison?" In no time, the singer started facing severe backlash on Twitter for his comments. Many users criticised him for raking up a religious issue.
