Udit Narayan had recently found himself in the midst of controversy as the singer ended up kissing a female fan during his live performance. This girl came to take a selfie with him and kissed him on the cheek during the selfie. In return, Udit Narayn just kissed her on the lips. As this video went viral, he faced a lot of backlash. The singer had reacted it and told ETimes that he is not ashamed or embarrassed. “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. If some people want to see something dirty in an act of pure affection, then I feel sorry for them. I also want to thank them,” he said.
Meanwhile, actress Kunickaa Sadanand has now reacted to this whole controversy. She said during a chat with Hindi Rush, “Udit Narayan ji ne kiss kia wo toh theek kia, lekin galat jagah par kiya. Gaal par kar deta lekin ab… (Udit Narayan kissed, that’s alright, but he kissed on the wrong place. He should’ve kissed on the cheek).”
She added, “I don’t blame anybody. Ab ladki bhi toh aayi hai saamne. Aapne aadmi pe kyu daal diya, ki tumne kyu kiss kiya? Ab aapki thali mein laddoo saj ke aayenge toh fir kya aap khayenge nahi unko? (The girl also came forward for the kiss. Why have you put the blame only on the man? If sweets are served on your plate, wouldn’t you eat them?). That’s not fair. Just because he’s Udit Narayan, you’re saying why did you kiss her?”
Kunickaa also added that one is in a different zone when on stage live. The excitement on stage is something else. “Arey bhai, pehli baat toh stage show karna na (First of all, doing a stage show), it’s a different emotion altogether. You’re so excited, the audience is giving you so much, you’re on a high. And jaise na aap nashe mein hote hain na, uss high mein, kabhi kabhi aap aisa dance ka step kar dete hain ki aapko pata nahi tha ki aap aisa dance bhi kar pate hain. You do so much! Aapke kuchh notes aise nikalte hain, kuchh performance aise nikalte hain. I know ki bahut saari auratein mujhe trash karengi ya troll karengi, ki what does she think, but aap khud ko bhi toh dekho, aap sirf aadmi ko kyu blame karogi? (You’re like in a trance. You sometimes dance like you didn’t know you could. You hit different notes, perform differently. I know a lot of women will trash or troll me, but you should see your own actions instead of just blaming the man).”
