7 days ago | 5 Views
The debate surrounding the issue may have subsided, yet Udit Narayan appears unfazed by it. During a promotional event in Mumbai on Monday, the seasoned singer made light of the contentious kisses he shared with female fans. This comes nearly a month after he faced significant backlash for a viral video depicting him kissing female attendees at a concert. At the trailer launch of the film "Pintu Ki Pappi," Udit Narayan humorously addressed the controversy.
Udit Narayan jokes about the controversy
Udit Narayan graced the event in Mumbai on Monday evening, accompanied by the film's actor and renowned choreographer Ganesh Acharya. While addressing the audience, he remarked, "It is a lovely title, Pintu Ki Pappi. It is not Udit's kiss, is it?" This comment prompted hearty laughter from both the audience and the film's team present on stage.
He further noted, "It is quite a coincidence that the music for this film is being released at this time." During the trailer launch, the 69-year-old Narayan also mentioned that the video which gained widespread attention last month was two years old and originated from an event held in Australia.
The controversy around Udit Narayan's kiss
In the widely shared video, the renowned singer was observed reciprocating kisses from female fans while performing his well-known 1990s track "Tip Tip Barsa Paani" from the action thriller "Mohra."
In one particular segment that gained traction on social media, Narayan was seen requesting security personnel to allow a female admirer, eager for a selfie, to approach the stage. As the fan moved closer to capture a photo with him, she leaned in to kiss him on the cheek, prompting Narayan to tilt his head and kiss her on the lips.
This incident led to a significant number of social media users calling for an apology from Narayan, labelling his actions as "inappropriate." Conversely, some defended the singer, asserting that the woman had initiated the kiss.
In light of the criticism, stating, “Fans can be quite passionate. We are not like that; we are decent individuals. Some people encourage this behaviour and express their affection in various ways. With so many individuals in the crowd and bodyguards present, fans often feel they have an opportunity to connect, leading some to extend their hands for a handshake or even kiss. This is all part of the excitement, and it shouldn't be given too much attention.”
