Let us all UNFOLLOW @SuPriyoBabul and show the power of Hindu unity. No place for GADDARS. He relaunched his musical career also thru BJP and deserted it when given development feedback about his work. What a loser.

Babul Supriyo has admitted that he joined the TMC because he was made an offer that would permit him to resume his normal public life. “Mamata Banerjee presented with a fantastic opportunity so that I could continue my public life in West Bengal and can resume my public life with grace and purpose… And I can continue singing. There’s going to be a lot of flak, a lot of memes… But the opportunity is worth the challenge,” he said.
