Earlier this week, singer Neha Kakkar faced backlash from the audience for arriving three hours late to a concert in Melbourne. After the audience booed the singer and asked her to leave, she broke down on stage. Following the incident, Neha took to social media, accusing the organisers of mismanagement. She alleged that the organisers ran away with her money, and her band was not provided with a hotel, food, or even water. In response to Neha’s accusations, the organisers have asserted that her allegations were false.
Stating that their company has incurred a loss, the organisers issued a statement on social media that read, “We will be back with all the proof and details of what happened with the Neha Kakkar show. We will expose everybody tomorrow, it will be live.” Later on a Facebook Live, the event’s representative called Neha Kakkar’s show a disaster and clarified that all arrangements were in place. They added, “The allegations are completely false. We are in a big debt after the show. She should be the one paying us. It was a mistake having her on board.”
Later, they took to Instagram to release a list of expenses incurred due to Neha Kakkar’s team and wrote, “Here are the expenses, and we are down $-530,000.” The organisers also stated that they were banned by the venue due to the unprofessional and delayed performance.
After the concert, Neha Kakkar had shared a note which read, “Do you all know that I performed absolutely free for my Melbourne audience? The organizers ran away with my money and others too. My band was not even given food, a hotel, or even water. My husband and his boys went and provided them with food. Inspite of all this, we still went on stage and did the show without any rest because my fans were waiting for hours for me.”
She further wrote, “Do you know our sound check got delayed by hours because the sound vendor was not paid and he refused to put the sound on. And when, after so much delay, our sound check started, I could not reach the venue. We didn’t even know if the concert was happening because the organizers stopped picking up my manager’s calls. After all, they were running away from the sponsors. Though there is a lot to share, I guess this is enough.”
