Singer Guru Randhawa has responded to the backlash over his new song 'Fine Shyt' by calling it 'a silly little slang' and telling critics to 'calm down'. In an Instagram video of himself driving a Porsche, he wrote he was 'guilty as charged of making songs that repeat in your head forever'. The track, released last Thursday, faced widespread criticism for being misogynistic towards female corporate workers and for sexualising the workplace. The music video is set in an office with Randhawa as a senior professional surrounded by female colleagues who dance around him. This is not his first such controversy, his earlier song 'Azul' was also criticised for allegedly sexualising schoolgirls. Before addressing the row, Randhawa visited the Golden Temple in Amritsar and posted a message about faith and moving forward. Fellow singer Tony Kakkar also took a playful jibe at him in a video, pretending to scold him for not involving him in the controversy.
