Pakistani singer Bilal Saeed sparked controversy when he threw a microphone at his fans during a recent concert, abruptly leaving the stage. Despite later addressing the incident in a note, netizens noted the absence of an apology. A video of the incident, which occurred at the Punjab Group of Colleges’ (PGC) Youth Musical Festival in Phalia, Pakistan, went viral, capturing Saeed abruptly leaving the stage. The concert was then terminated.
After the video went viral, internet users criticised the singer for mistreating his fans. On January 27, a day later, Saeed finally acknowledged the entire incident, admitting that he shouldn’t have left the stage.
He said, “The stage has always been my whole world l; I have always felt the most complete and the most alive while performing! I forget my sickness, stress, worries- I leave everything behind when I perform for my fans. And no matter what, nothing should have come in the way of me and the respect that my stage deserved from me,” he wrote.
He went on to say, “I love my fans and sometimes that love can be overwhelming for both sides. It wasn’t the first time someone was misbehaving in the crowed but it was definitely the first time I gave the wrong reaction! I should have never left the stage.”
Despite writing a detailed note, the singer didn’t apologize for throwing the mic and hurting fans. Bilal Saeed is known for hits like 12 Saal, Adhi Adhi Raat and Teri Khair Mangdi, with the last one featured in the Bollywood film Baar Baar Dekho, starring Katrina Kaif and Sidharth Malhotra.
The incident comes to light after a similar incident from across the border gained attention on social media. Pakistani singer Ustad Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, who has equally contributed his voice to many Bollywood films, stirred a controversy after a video of him assaulting an individual inside the premises of his house went viral.
