Overnight internet sensation Ranu Mondal rose to fame after her rendition of a Lata Mangeshkar song on the Ranaghat station in Bengal went viral.
Not only this, but she also sang a hit version of ‘Teri Meri Kahani’ in Himesh Reshammiya’s film. In addition to this, Ranu has also become a social media sensation. To sum it up, Ranu’s popularity has just sky-rocketed. But it seems her magic has vanished of late.
Back in November 2019, the singer had recorded three songs with Bollywood composer Himesh Reshammiya but nobody has heard much from her recently.
However, Ranu has also been in one controversy or the other. After becoming popular, Ranu left her old house and moved to a new residence. But before coronavirus pandemic lockdown, it was reported that Ranu Mondal had left this new home and returned to her old place.
According to reports, Ranu did not have much work in Bollywood and is in a bad shape economically.
Also back in November 2019, the singer was seen behaving extremely rudely with a fan who wanted to take a selfie. In the video, a woman can be seen approaching Ranu from behind and tapping her on the shoulder to get her attention for a selfie during an event. However, an irritated Mondal does not take kindly to the gesture and taps the woman’s shoulder in return asking ‘What is this?’ in Hindi.
She did face criticism from her fans and others for her behaviour. Many blamed her quick rise to fame as the reason for the celebrity attitude.
The lockdown followed and Ranu Mondal has faded from people’s memory. During the Covid-19 lockdown, Ranu appeared in a YouTube video helping out some poor people. Atindra Chakraborty, who first identified Ranu on social media, said that some needy people were taken to Ranu’s house. In addition to the aid money, Ranu bought some essential items, including rice and pulses, from them.
But now the reports say that she is in a poor state and is in need of help herself.
