Anand’s attitude irks Ila-Article

Junoon Kuch Kar Dikhane Ka is a competition between three genres of music — Folk, Sufi and Filmy — which has Ila Arun, Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and Anand Raj Anand mentoring folk, sufi and filmy singers respectively.

However, Anand is not too happy with the folk and sufi singers walking away with lot of applause and credit for their performances. He is also not happy with the comments that sufi and folk singers have God's blessings because of spiritual elements in their music.
Last week on the show's sets, Anand told Illa that whatever she is today is not because of folk singing but Bollywood.

Ila retorted saying whatever she is today is because of her talent. "I am a playback singer because I have proved my talent as folk singer," she told Anand pointblank. The argument went on for some time off camera and Illa had no choice but to tell Anand not to get personal. She also told the show's producer-director Gajendra Singh to rein in Anand or else she would leave the show.

Sources in the production company say that Anand has attitude problems and doesn't get along well with the other mentors and the unit members.
