Vishal blasts Anuv's act; but Neha, Chaar Diwaari rally in his defence
India, Dec. 11 -- Singer-composer Vishal Dadlani slammed musician Anuv Jain for an "embarrassing" act during English musician Jacob Collier's Mumbai concert on November 30.
A clip showing Anuv crooning his hit Baarishein alongside Jacob has viewers criticising the vocals as 'flat', 'lacklustre', and 'ill-suited' to the high-octane setup.
