After facing intense criticism online, Neha Kakkar took to Instagram to address the controversy surrounding her Melbourne concert.

New Delhi: The recent Melbourne performance of Indian playback singer Neha Kakkar has put her in the middle of controversy. According to reports, Neha Kakkar was three hours late, much to the disappointment and frustration of her fans. The ‘Dilbar’ singer apologised to the crowd and promised to make up for the bumpy start to the performance in the video that went viral, which included her crying.

Taking to Instagram to address the problem, Neha Kakkar pleaded with the public not to make a judgment in the face of overwhelming criticism online. She used a sad emoji to punctuate her statement and said, "Wait for the truth, you'll regret judging me so quickly."

Tony Kakkar’s Response 

Tony Kakkar, the singer's brother, defended her by thrashing the internet bullies who had called her emotional reaction "fake." Tony countered Neha's accusation that the event organisers were to blame for the delay with an Instagram post of his own.

He wrote, “Suppose I invite you to my city for an event and take full responsibility for all arrangements— booking your hotel, car, airport pickup, and tickets. Now, imagine you arrive only to find that nothing has been booked. No car at the airport, no hotel reservation, and no tickets. In that situation, who is to blame?”
