Mumbai: Songwriter Manoj Muntashir has decided to say goodbye to Filmfare awards. Manoj who wrote the popular song Teri Mitti from Akshay Kumar starrer Kesari was nominated at the Filmfare Awards 2020. He got disappointed after the best lyrics category went to Divine and Ankur Tewari for Apna Time Aayega from Gully Boy.
Manoj shared a post on Twitter which reads, "Dear Awards...Even if I try all my life... I won't be able to write a better song than #TeriMitti, a better line than.. 'Tu Kahti Thee Tera Chaand Hoon Main Aur Chaand Humesha Rahta hai'. You failed to honour the words which made millions of Indians cry and care for their motherland. It would be a great disrespect to my art if I still continue caring for you. So here I bid you a final goodbye. I officially announce- I won't attend any award show till I breathe my last. Alvida."
