Singer Abhijeet Bhattacharya believes he should be credited for the success achieved by film stars such as Akshay Kumar and Suniel Shetty. Abhijeet has said in an interview that Akshay was previously known as 'poor man's MithunChakraborty'.Abhijeet Bhattacharya is the voice behind multiple 90s hits such as Sheher Ki Ladki, Zara Sa Jhoom Lu Main and more. He has said that he is made only to sing for stars. Akshay Kumar is one of Bollywood's most successful actors and often makes it to the list of the world's richest people in the entertainment industry.
"I am made to sing only for the stars, not for the actors. No matter how good I sing, if the person is not a star, it isn’t worth anything. There’s Shah Rukh Khan on one side and there’s SunielShetty on the other. Now, SRK is a star. He has a class when he speaks and Suniel has got this rough and tough appeal attached to him. Every time someone decided to curate a song for Suniel, it had to be aggressive and wild. I sang for both Suniel and SRK. All my songs picturised on both the actors were a hit," he said in an interview to India.com.
