Udit Narayan on kissing controversy
Udit Narayan had recently been in news when he had kissed a female fan on her lips while she had come to take a selfie. The female fan kissed Udit on his cheeks and the singer immediately kissed her on the lips. The video went viral with many slamming the singer for his inappropriate behaviour.
"Fans itne deewane hote hain na. Hum log aise nahi hain, hum decent log gain (Fans are crazy. We are not like this, we are decent people). Some people encourage this and show their love through this. Udaake kya karna hai ab iss cheez ko (What is the point of making a big deal out of this)?" he had told HT.
"There are so many people in the crowd, and we have bodyguards present too. But fans think they are getting a chance to meet, so someone extends their hands for a handshake, some kiss the hands... yeh sab deewangi hoti hai. Uspe itna dhyaan nahi dena chahiye (All this is fans' craze, it shouldn't be given so much attention)," he further added.
