The claim
In an X post, Sonu Nigam criticised BJP MP Tejasvi Surya, saying Kannada films shouldn’t be dubbed in Hindi or released nationwide.
Original review summary
FACTLY reports that the X account behind the post belonged to a namesake, not singer Sonu Nigam, who had left the platform in 2017. The review says Nigam clarified on Instagram on 22 May 2025 that he was not on X and objected to statements being attributed to him.[S1]
