MARCH 18,2026
Nora Fatehi has been hitting the headlines, but this time, for a controversial reason. The actress's new song from the upcoming Kannada film KD: The Devil has sparked a massive outrage because of its lyrics, with many calling it "vulgar and cheap".
The song, Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke, starring Nora Fatehi and Sanjay Dutt, attracted backlash soon after its release due to its objectionable lyrics and suggestive choreography.
The song was originally written by KD: The Devil's director Prem and translated to Hindi by Raqeeb Alam.
Amid all the hate comments and criticism, Prem's wife, Rakshitha, took to Instagram and shared a series of stories with rather long messages, defending her husband against the trolls.
She questioned the "selective outrage" over the song when there have been several questionable Bollywood songs with obscene lyrics that got a smooth pass in the past.
Rakshitha Shetty defends Prem
Rakshitha penned a long note as she defended her husband-director and also called the outrage "unjustified". She compared Nora Fatehi's new song to tracks like Choli Ke Peeche Kya Hain, Dreamum Wakeupum, and more.

One of her stories started with, "Yes, yes, I have seen it all. I know you guys are tagging me in random people's posts. The fact is I know what's written. I know what's happening. My stand on whether I am for it or against it doesn't matter. When songs likePeelings,Dreamum Wakeupum,Choli ke Peeche, or hundreds like these came out, it seemed fine."
"When an entire film came out talking about how the actors just spoke about having sexual intercourse throughout the film, it seemed fine. But one song creates massive news. Still not justifying - just asking so I can understand this," she added.
"One song doesn't make him a bad write": Rakshitha
The star wife further argued Prem's body of work cannot be questioned on the basis of a song.
She went on to write, "One song doesn't mean he is a horrible writer or does everything for gimmicks? Wrong. Just because some films don't do as well as the others doesn't mean he is a bad maker... wrong. Do you have the right to question him? Yes, you do have the right to ask him why. Do you have the right to abuse him? Nooo, you don't. When you abuse him, it's like some random lady spat badly, saying it was personal."
She concluded with, "Thanks for all the concerned ones. I am truly grateful. I am here, and so is Prem.KDis our baby, and we will do what's right at the end and only what's right. Trust us and smile more, love and love only."
Following the backlash, the Hindi version was taken down from YouTube, while the Kannada, Malayalam, Telugu, and Tamil versions still remain available.
