If sources are to be believed, Sonu was asked to change the organisers of the event as Dawood preferred another event management company. Shakeel also threatened that if the singer failed to do so he would expose Sonu’s relationship with a Mumbai-based woman.

Nigam is yet to record a detailed statement and file an FIR. In the meanwhile, the police may provide security to Sonu. The singer had planned a tour in 2014 during which he would have shows in 12 countries.
