While the contestants on an Indo-Pak music contest Sur Kshetra battle it out at the music floor, far less concordant notes were stuck backstage when in step with sources from the set in Dubai where the entire show was shot, Pakistant pop singer Atif Aslam continuously behaved in an abrupt and rude fashion together with his iconic co-judge Asha Bhosle.

While the enduring singer, not known to suffer highhanded beaviour, took the arrogant behaviour sportingly enough for some time she finally gave up and walked out of the show. Apparently it took the entire channel Sahara India's CEO Boney Kapoor's persuasive powers to bring her back at the show.

In her effort to downplay the diversities with the Tere bin singer, Ashaji brushes off the more youthful singer's rudeness. `It's just drama and masala to get viewers' attention. Atif is an excellent boy. And so handsome. He touched my feet originally of the show and said I USED TO BE like his mother. Yes, we did have some initial differences. But nothing major, similar to a mother bickering together with her child. `

Ashaji says she refrained from the show for some weeks not as a result of her differences with Atif but because she was unwell.

However the Surshetra producer Gajendra Singh spills the beans saying, `Atif's conduct with Ashaji was not proper. We were all shocked and wondered why he was behaving this manner. Finally matters came to a head and Ashaji walked out of the show for a few weeks.

Two people persuaded her to go back. One was Boney Kapoor and the opposite was Ashaji's niece Rachana Shah. In the event that they hadn't mediated God knows what we'd have done. Ashaji is just like the foundation and touchstone of the show. `

All efforts to contact Atif Aslam proved futile.

I won't rule out the chance because Ra.One could become a franchise ultimately. We'd call the second one film Ra.Two...
