Udit Narayan Reacts to the Controversy
Amid the backlash, Udit Narayan responded to the controversy in an interview with Hindustan Times, saying, "Fans itne deewane hote hain na. Hum log aise nahi hain, hum decent log hain. Some people encourage this and show their love through this. Udaake kya karna hai ab iss cheez ko? (Fans are crazy. We are not like this, we are decent people. Some people express love this way. What’s the point of making a big deal out of this?)"
He further justified the act, saying, "There are so many people in the crowd, and we have bodyguards present too. But fans think they are getting a chance to meet, so someone extends their hands for a handshake, some kiss the hands... Yeh sab deewangi hoti hai. Uspe itna dhyaan nahi dena chahiye. (This is all fan craze, it shouldn't be given so much attention.)"
