Because Rehman spoke up, along with Prasoon Joshi (chairman CBFC). And unfortunately if anyone else would have spoken up it wouldn't be considered worthy enough for other celebs to respond.
When Vishal Dadlani spoke up, there weren't as many responses as Rehman got, maybe since ARR is considered the G.O.A.T.
Other than that, Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy, Nadeem-Shravan, Laxmikant-Pyarelal, Himesh Reshammiya, Viju Shah, Anand-Milind...no one said anything (the last two are too non-controversial and have never said anything negative ever so I wouldn't expect them to...plus as hugely talented as they are they've been out of the radar for too long to get any coverage from the media without PR).
Thats what is saddening...too many suffered but just because T Series targeted a Rehman song, everyone decided to speak up. Whereas some genuine masterpieces were butchered before and no one said a word except a few memes here and there and the media did not make a huge deal out of it.
Tbh, I expected a bigger outrage when Ankhiyon se goli maare was made TWICE, I was shocked to see how badly they could butcher such a well made song...but the media was busy getting Raveena or Govinda's response, not the creator's.
Finally celebs/media only want to be associated with those who are hugely popular currently, if Rehman was off the radar they wouldn't have even bothered to become "woke".
