Amaal Mallik Alleges 'Big Boys' Blocked Him From Over 60 Film Projects

The message signals a pivot to indie work in a field long shaped by gatekeepers.

Overview

  • Mallik, who posted a long note Tuesday night, said powerful insiders pushed him off more than 60 projects since 2019 while he turned down about 20 films himself.
  • He wrote that speaking openly about industry practices brought hostility and what he called pointless threats to him and his family.
  • He described a mixed syndicate beyond music labels and named no one, with coverage noting there is no independent confirmation of his claims so far.
  • He asked fans to back his independent songs and signaled he will focus on non-film releases if film work remains blocked.
  • He added that family ties to composers Daboo and Anu Malik have not helped, saying nepotism is not working for him.
