Almost three years back there was a controversy about Udit Narayan being married before he got together with wife Deepa Narayan, the mother of his son Aditya. He somehow managed to duck the major controversy.
Now for sometime there have been accusations about Udit not being an Indian citizen.
The B-Town vocalist has been considered for the coveted Padma Shri and it has now given a chance to his detractors to dig up the citizenship issue again.
Udit says that he was born in a village named Baisi situated at the Supaul district of Bihar in 1955.
But some media reports claim that he was born in a town called Raj Biraj of a district named Saptari in southern Nepal.
The singer feels that these are false allegations which have been started by people from Bihar as they think that they have not done anything for the state.
But he says that he’s always available for them. Even during last year’s flood in Bihar he gave a donation of Rs.5 lakh and he doesn’t understand why people are jealous as he’s not even singing many songs these days.
