Monali Thakur ends her Varanasi concert midway due to mismanagement.
Playback singer Monali Thakur ended her concert in Varanasi midway on December 22. The poor management by the event organizers and inadequate infrastructure led her to walk out. A video that has gone viral on social media shows Monali apologizing to her fans after she had to shut down her show in Varanasi.
In a video shared by Dalimss News on Instagram, Monali was seen apologizing to her fans, while also blasting the event organizers. “I am disheartened that my team and I were so excited to perform here. Let’s not talk about the infrastructure and its condition, as that is the management’s responsibility. I can’t explain what they have done to the stage just so they can steal money,” she is heard saying.
She further added, “Time and again, I’ve said that I could injure my ankle here. My dancers have been telling me to calm down, but everything was a mess. We were trying because I am answerable to you all, and you come for me, right? So, you will hold me accountable for all of this.” She said that she hopes she grows so big that she can take all responsibility for everything and doesn’t have to rely on ‘useless, unethical and irresponsible’ people for the concert.
“I sincerely apologise that we have to shut down this show, but I am going to come back for sure. And I hope I can give you a much better event than this. So, forgive us,” she said. Check out the video below!
As soon as the video clip surfaced, many Instagram users showed their support to Monali. One fan wrote, “People blaming her just remember the organizers at Kolkata when KK was performing and he suffered a heart attack due to no proper ventilation and heat,” while another one commented, “She is right , point is it’s live performance and we know how it might lead to injuries and damage to people …”
Monali Thakur is a popular playback singer, known for her hit songs such as Sawar Loon, Zara Zara Touch Me, Moh Moh Ke Dhaage, Dhol Baaje, Cham Cham, Laila Majnu, Badri Ki Dulhania, among others. She received a National Film Award for the song ‘Moh Moh Ke Dhaage’ from the 2015 film Dum Lagaa Ke Haisha.
