Sona Mohapatra took to her social media and wrote, “Dear @Colgate please know that you are sponsoring a show like #IndianIdol that platforms a multiple accused sexual predator like Anu Malik & that doesn’t care about the safety & dignity of women & children in #India. This will hurt your family brand & brand valuation too”
Neha Bhasin also expressed the same, she wrote, “This @The_AnuMalik reigns #indianidol again. Congrats @SonyTV for giving strength to a man who left last year out of fear and guilt. Congrats @Colgate for enabling a serial predetor. Clearly our voices, our misfortune has not reached your ears. @sonamohapatra @ShwetaPandit7”
