Bollywood playback singer Sonu Nigam, who found himself amidst a controversy for criticising sermons from the loudspeakers, said people should stop talking about the matter and move on.
The 43-year-old singer took to Twitter where he asserted that there was no need to fuel it anymore.
"Guys, in favour of me and in opposition, let's agree to agree and disagree. No need to fuel this anymore. Look ahead and move on. Prayers," wrote Nigam.
The singer had described the loud sermons from the loudspeakers as hooliganism in a series of tweets and a fatwa was issued against him by a Kolkata-based cleric.
Nigam recently posted a video of Azaan.
