TMC's Babul Supriyo shared some posters of music videos and movies and said he has "nothing against Pawanji the artist, but if these posters are true, then it clearly shows what kind of respect @BJP4India has for Bengal & especially for women from Bengal"..

On these allegations, Pawan Singh challenged Supriyo saying that he will quit singing and politics if he can "prove that these songs on the poster correct"..

Meanwhile, TMC leader Saket Gokhale had tweeted earlier, accusing Pawan Singh of making "videos that are extremely VULGAR & misogynist & targets the women of Bengal"...
