Udit Narayan shocked everyone with his recent concert wherein he kissed female fans without their consent. It led to many people dig out his old videos where he kissed singers Shreya Ghoshal and Alka Yagnik too. Many are now calling it a ‘kissing scandal’ and are slamming the singer online. Now, the singer has reacted to the incident.
In an interview, the Bollywood singer defended him again and questioned whether he has done anything to bring shame to himself, his family, or his country. Udit Narayan asked why he would do something now on stage after achieving so much. “There is a deep, pure, and unbreakable bond between my fans and me. What you saw in the so-called scandalous video was a manifestation of the love between my fans and me. They love me. I love them back even more,” he said.
Further, when Bollywood Hungama asked Udit Narayan if he has any regrets over the ‘kissing scandal,’ the singer said no. The singer said, “No, not at all! Why should I be? Do you hear any regret or sorrow in my voice? In fact, I am laughing as I talk to you. It is not something sleazy or secret. It is there in the public domain. My heart is pure.” The Pardesi Pardesi singer added that if some people want to see something dirty in his act of “pure affection,” he feels sorry for them. But he also wants to thank them for making him more famous than he already was.
In the same interview, the singer shared his wish to win the Bharat Ratna. Udit Narayan stated, “I am the recipient of several Filmfare Awards, National Awards, Padma Sri, and Padma Bhushan. I aspire to get the Bharat Ratna, like Lataji. She is my idol. Do you know I was her favourite co-singer among the singers of my generation? I have sung the maximum duets with her from my generation of singers. When I have Mata Saraswati’s blessings, what do I care about people who cannot bear to see others successful?”
Amidst all this, a video is going viral in which Udit Narayan is singing several songs with singer Sudesh Bhosle. From Main Nikla Main Gaddi Leke to Chumma Chumma, the singers treat fans with some hits.
