Singer Armaan Malik has strongly criticised the lyrics of the recently released song “Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke”, featuring actor-dancer Nora Fatehi and Sanjay Dutt from the upcoming Kannada film KD: The Devil. The track has sparked widespread debate on social media, with several viewers calling its lyrics inappropriate and vulgar.
The controversy began soon after the lyrical video of the dance number was released online. While the song quickly gained attention for Nora Fatehi’s energetic performance and glamorous visuals, many listeners criticised the lyrics for their suggestive wording and double meanings. As clips from the track circulated widely on social media platforms, the discussion around the song intensified.
Joining the online debate, Armaan Malik took to X (formerly Twitter) to express his disappointment. The singer said the track appeared on his timeline and that he replayed it just to confirm what he had heard. He added, “This showed up on my timeline and I had to replay it just to make sure I heard it right. Sad to see commercial songwriting hit a new low..”

The dance number features Nora Fatehi performing in a high-energy setting alongside Sanjay Dutt. The sequence is designed as a glamorous dance-bar style performance with elaborate choreography and vibrant visuals. While some fans praised Nora’s performance and screen presence, others argued that the song’s lyrics overshadowed the visual appeal.
Social media reactions have been divided. A section of users defended the song as typical commercial entertainment, while many others criticised the makers for promoting what they described as objectionable lyrics in mainstream cinema. The backlash highlights the continuing debate around lyrical content and responsibility in commercial music.
