He also invited celebrity hairstylist Aalim Hakim to cut his hair, in response to a West Bengal cleric’s fatwa who offering Rs 10 lakhs to shave off Sonu’s head. He said “I am a secular person. It was not about azaan, it was about the loud sound. Playing loud sound on a speaker is gundagardi for me,”. Further he added “What is happening to the country? Anyone can lynch anyone or anyone can issue a fatwa. I’m not talking about any single religion,”.

As it is reported that Sonu Nigam has also said in a press conference that he raised a social topic and not a religious one. When he rages on twitter about being woken up by the sound of azaan, the Muslim call to prayers, and apologised “if someone thought otherwise”.
On being asked why he was shaving his head, Sonu said, “It’s not an agitation, not a challenge that I am throwing someone’s way. I am shaving my head just to show that the person cutting my hair is a Muslim. It’s all about interpreting things the right way. I exhort the media to present it like that and not in a confrontational way.”
After this live conference in front of media his twitter storm with many supportive tweets.
