'Apna Time Aayega' won best lyrics award at Filmfare 2020. The song won even after competition from the 'Kesari' song 'Teri Mitti'. This has upset lyricist Manoj Muntashir who has promised to never attend award shows ever again.
While Manoj did not criticize the song which won the award, he used a few verses from his own song 'Teri Mitti' to question how could his lyrics not have won. Angered by the same, Manoj vowed to boycott award shows 'till his last breath'.
In his post, Manoj Mauntashir wrote, "Dear Awards...Even if I try all my life.. I won't be able to write a better song than #TeriMitti, a better line than.. 'Tu Kahti Thee Tera Chaand Hoon Main Aur Chaand Humesha Rahta hai'. You failed to honor the words which made millions of Indians cry and care for their motherland. It would be a great disrespect to my art if I still continue caring for you. So here I bid you a final good bye. I officially announce- I won't attend any award show till I breathe my last. Alvida."
