New Delhi: Popular Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam woke up to a not-so-good Monday. The singer took to his Twitter and posted a series tweets on a rather sensitive issue in the country. He drew religious ire for tweeting about Azaan and how he is not a Muslim and yet has to get up each morning to the sound of it.
Sonu tweeted:
God bless everyone. I'm not a Muslim and I have to be woken up by the Azaan in the morning. When will this forced religiousness end in India

And by the way Mohammed did not have electricity when he made Islam.. Why do I have to have this cacophony after Edison?

I don't believe in any temple or gurudwara using electricity To wake up people who don't follow the religion . Why then..? Honest? True?

This has drawn a lot of flak on the micro-blogging site and tweeple have not taken it in a good way. The singer's religious ranting has come as an utter shock to his fans who found it completely uncalled for.
Sonu Nigam was last seen hosting popular singing reality show 'Indian Idol'.
