Abdu Rozik and MC Stan's friendship is going through a rough phase. Known to be a part of the famous Mandali inside the Bigg Boss 16 house, they shared a great bond throughout the show. However, things took a sour turn when Stan apparently started avoiding Abdu's calls and was uncomfortable with his presence. The rift between them became a topic of discussion publicly recently when Abdu hosted a live session on Instagram and expressed his disappointment over Stan's behaviour towards him. Now, the Tajikistani singer's team has issued a statement addressing the matter after he received backlash and unsavory comments.
In a statement to the media, Abdu's management team clarified the entire matter and put forth the singer's side of the story. "On 10th March Sajid Khan visited Abdu and MC Stan was calling Sajid's phone. Abdu was so excited and happy to speak to Stan taking the phone "Salamalaikum mere dil mere jaan how are you my brother I miss you so much" Stan replied on speaker with Sajid I will call you later and hung up. Abdu then sent Stan a voice note asking why did you not Salam me or say you busy and until this day Stan has not responded or addressed why he did that," the statement read.
Abdu's management team further added, "On 11th March, Abdu and Stan were both in Bangalore. Abdu spoke to Stan's manager saying he wanted to support his brother by attending not performing to which Abdu got a response from the security team and organizers that Stan did not want Abdu at the venue. Abdu then thinking this was a mistake from Stan's team tried to go to the venue as a normal guest with a ticket only to be sworn at very bad words by Stan's management and to be turned away at the normal entrance and have the car damaged and panels broken."
Continuing, the team wrote, "Following these events, two record labels called stating that they wanted collaboration between Abdu and Stan but they were informed by Stan and his team that they do not wish to work with Abdu. Abdu never asked for these collaborations or requested them, these were independent labels who wanted this collab. Abdu was naturally disappointed and saddened due to the response as he believed he and Mc Stan are friends and naturally out of manners and respect discussing these things privately first before a public hearing is more respectful."
Explaining the possible reason behind Abdu and Stan's rift, the statement read, "Lastly, mandali members had informed Abdu that Stan said Abdu has not taken a picture with his mother at the Bigg Boss finale and that Stan was offended by this. Abdu was really upset to hear this as when Abdu came out of bigg boss one of his first calls was to stans mother for Salam and to tell her Stan is doing OK. Of course, since she wears hijab and Abdu respects her massively, he never refused any picture and was not asked but of course as a Muslim brother did not understand this issue. Stan had also informed other Mandali members that Abdu had unfollowed him and had deleted their collab post but Abdu never followed Stan and had 4 million international followers before entering Bigg Boss and since Stan follows nobody it was never an issue discussed between them. The collab post with Abdu and Stan we can confirm was requested by Stan's team via WhatsApp to post collab and was later deleted by them also without telling Abdu."
The team signed off saying, "More than all of these small issues Abdu is saddened by the fact that the public and media are treating Abdu like a baby or that he does not understand anything. Abdu spent 105 days in the Bigg Boss house on his own with no support, family, or management. As little or large as an issue may be, respect is so important between brothers and between fans and their idols. We condemn anyone who is being racist, body shaming, bullying, height shaming and defaming Abdu and will take action against the specific group of accounts who are doing this."
Stan, who won Bigg Boss 16, is yet to react to the matter.
