Videos circulating on social media show Udit Narayan performing the popular song Tip Tip Barsa Paani when several female fans gathered near the stage for selfies. One fan kissed him on the cheek, and the singer responded by kissing her on the lips.
In the viral videos from the show, as another woman tried to hug and kiss Udit Narayan, he kissed her on the cheek. He then kissed another woman on the lips. The crowd cheered, and more fans continued to line up for selfies with the singer.
Udit Narayan's actions sparked a wave of backlash from a section of online audiences, with many netizens expressing their disapproval on social media. The singer has since faced significant trolling, as social media users criticized his behavior, sparking a heated debate online.
One user wrote, "How can Udit Narayan kiss a girl who was kissing him without his consent. Unacceptable. All men are same." While another user wrote, "Udit Narayan..no way.. i hope this is AI.. if not.. whole legacy is completely destroyed.." One netizen also stated, “A singer of his stature should be super conscious of his deeds in public."
"Did not expect this from a Senior Singer like Udit Narayan," commented another enraged social media user.
A netizen also shared a video clip from the event and shared a post on X that read, "Udit Narayan has a history of such predatory behaviour and yet he remains scot-free which is shocking.
