Singer Babul Supriyo clarifies about Kamal Khan Deshdrohi 2

This is concerning a news item featured in a popular English afternoon daily about Mr.  Kamal Khan (famous or in-famous for Deshdrohi) signing me for his forthcoming film Deshdrohi Part-2. In this regard, I wish to clarify that neither have I signed nor have I discussed any specific film with Mr. Khan. While it is true that we met through a common friend, I confirm that we never discussed a film on 26/11 or my role in it simply because I feel what happened on 26/11 is too serious and traumatic an event to be made into a film. Largely speaking, the primary motive of a film is to entertain and while one might subscribe to the idea of making a documentary on it to educate the common man and create awareness in the society about the menace of terrorism, I genuinely believe that sensationalizing it through a film is quite frivolous an idea, Mr. Khan’s artistic liberty notwithstanding.
