Indian playback singer Neha Kakkar became visibly emotional during her Melbourne concert after arriving nearly three hours late. Despite delivering a heartfelt apology, the audience response was divided, with some fans voicing support while others accused her of staging a dramatic display.
Backlash and Support from Fans
Neha's arrival delay led to boos from some attendees, with a few in the crowd shouting "Go Back." A video that surfaced online captured the singer trying to pacify the audience while holding back tears.
She told the crowd:
“Guys, you are really sweet! You have been patient. Itni der se aap log wait kar rahe ho. I hate it, maine life mein kabhi kisi ko wait nahi karwaya hai. Aap itni der se wait kar rahe ho, I’m so sorry!... I will make sure that I will make you all dance.”
While some labeled her reaction as “drama” or “acting,” others argued that the delay was out of her control.
Claims of Mismanagement by Event Organizers
Singer Twinkle Aggrawal commented on a video posted by Jist News, claiming the delay stemmed from organizers’ mismanagement. She stated:
“The sponsors ran away with money and the show almost got cancelled but she still chose to come for everybody without dancers or anything.”
This view was supported by other fans who believed Neha Kakkar demonstrated professionalism by performing despite the setback.
Previous Performance in Sydney
Neha had earlier performed in Sydney, sharing moments from the event on her Instagram. She expressed her appreciation in a post captioned:
“Thank you #Sydney Tonight #Melbourne #NehaKakkarLive.”
Dedication Amid Difficulties
Despite facing challenges in Melbourne, Neha Kakkar’s determination to connect with her fans was evident. The situation has sparked debate online, but her gesture of addressing the crowd and fulfilling her commitment drew admiration from many.
