Melody queen Lata Mangeshkar’s reaction to Ranu Mondal, stating that the internet sensation should “be original”, has disappointed many fans and social media users, who feel the legendary singer could have been “more gracious”.

“Such a superstar and so ungracious,” wrote a user on Twitter.

Lata Mangeshkar Receives Outrage From Netizens For Ranu Mondal Comment: “Such A Superstar & So Ungracious”

“A poor lady sang on a railway platform for a living. #RanuMondal’s voice was miraculously noticed by SM and she became a star. Inspiring Lata ji could have been more gracious, complimented and helped her. This lecture on “imitation” was avoidable,” another user said.
