The controversy surrounding the song Maaye from the upcoming film Skyforce has been resolved, with lyricist Manoj Muntashir Shukla finally receiving due credit for his work. The makers of the movie have rectified their oversight, acknowledging Manoj in the song credits and their social media posts.

Makers Respond to Manoj’s Warning


On Wednesday, the team behind Skyforce took to their social media platforms to share the song, this time ensuring that Manoj’s name was included. The caption accompanying the post also credited the lyricist, addressing the earlier omission.

This correction comes after Manoj Muntashir Shukla issued a stern warning to Jio Studios, Maddock Films, and Saregama Global. Taking to X (formerly Twitter), Manoj expressed his frustration, calling out the lack of recognition for his contribution. In a strongly-worded statement, he wrote:

“Please note @jiostudios, @MaddockFilms @saregamaglobal, this song is not just sung and composed but also written by someone who has given all his blood and sweat to it. Removing writers' names from the opening credits shows utter disrespect for the craft and fraternity by the makers.”

He further added, “If it’s not corrected immediately, including the main song releasing tomorrow, I am going to disown the song and make sure my voice is heard by the law of the land. Shame.”

Manoj’s Troubled History with Controversies


Manoj Muntashir Shukla is no stranger to controversies. His work on the Prabhas-starrer Adipurush faced severe backlash, with audiences criticizing its writing. Acknowledging his mistakes, Manoj publicly apologized for the missteps in the film’s dialogue.

Another notable controversy involved his song Teri Mitti from the Akshay Kumar-starrer Kesari. The song, which received immense love from fans, failed to win the Best Lyrics award, losing to Apna Time Aayega from Zoya Akhtar’s Gully Boy at an award ceremony. This snub led to widespread debate among fans and industry insiders.

About ‘Skyforce’


The film Skyforce, starring Akshay Kumar, Veer Pahariya, Sara Ali Khan, and Nimrat Kaur, is one of the most anticipated releases. The controversy over Manoj’s credit for Maaye briefly overshadowed the excitement for the movie, but with the issue now resolved, the focus has shifted back to the film itself.

Conclusion


The resolution of this controversy underscores the importance of recognizing all contributors in the creative process. For Manoj Muntashir Shukla, receiving proper credit for his work on Maaye restores his rightful place in the project. As Skyforce gears up for release, fans hope the spotlight remains on its cinematic appeal rather than its controversies.
