Bollywood’s legendary playback singer Udit Narayan has finally addressed the viral video that has been making waves on social media. The video, showing him lip-kissing a female fan during a live concert, triggered massive backlash, with people questioning his actions. Many called it inappropriate, while others debated whether it was just an innocent fan moment. Now, Udit Narayan has come forward to clear the air, saying that it was nothing but fan excitement and people shouldn’t make a big deal out of it.
What Exactly Happened?
The viral video captures Udit Narayan performing ‘Tip Tip Barsa Pani’ on stage, when suddenly, a group of excited female fans rushed towards him for a selfie. Amidst the chaos, one of the fans kissed him, and in return, Udit Narayan kissed her back on the lips. This unexpected moment instantly went viral, sparking debates online.
While some people brushed it off as a lighthearted fan interaction, others were outraged, questioning whether it was appropriate, especially given Udit Narayan’s seniority in the industry.
Udit Narayan’s Response: “It Was Just Fan Craze”
Reacting to the controversy, Udit Narayan explained that the entire situation was simply a result of fan excitement and shouldn’t be taken too seriously.
“Fans can get overly excited at times. We are respectful people, and we don’t encourage such actions. Some fans express their love in ways we don’t expect. When we’re performing in a packed venue, there’s security around, but fans sometimes feel like they have a once-in-a-lifetime chance to interact with their favorite artists. This was just fan craze, and people shouldn’t blow it out of proportion.”
He also touched upon his family’s clean image and how people often try to create controversies around celebrities.
“My family has always maintained a good reputation, but there are always people who love to stir up unnecessary drama. My son Aditya stays away from controversies, but people still try to drag us into things. Some may think my singing drives fans crazy, and that’s why moments like this happen. My fans love me, and I love them back. If my presence brings them happiness, I don’t mind. This is just an example of extreme fan love.”
Social Media Reactions: Mixed Responses from Fans
The internet remains divided over the viral video. While some fans believe it was just a fun, harmless moment, others have slammed the singer, calling his actions inappropriate.
- A user commented: “At this age, behaving like this? Absolutely unacceptable.”
- Another wrote: “This is highly unprofessional and awkward. Never expected this from such a respected singer.”
At the same time, some fans defended him, saying that it was just a spontaneous reaction and nothing scandalous. As the debate continues, Udit Narayan seems unbothered by the controversy, maintaining that it was all about fan enthusiasm. Whether people accept his explanation or not, one thing is for sure—this incident has certainly got everyone talking!
