In an unusual display of frustration, renowned playback singer Arijit Singh—known for his soft-spoken demeanor and humility—was seen angrily addressing a fan during a recent live concert. The rare outburst took place when a fan allegedly pulled the singer’s hand with excessive force while he was performing on stage.
The incident, captured on video by concertgoers, quickly went viral across social media platforms. In the video, Arijit is seen momentarily stopping his performance to address the situation directly. Looking visibly uncomfortable, he confronted the fan by saying:
“Aise haath mat pakdo yaar, main insaan hoon.”
(Don’t hold my hand like that, I’m a human being.)
The statement resonated with many fans online, with several expressing support for the singer and emphasizing the importance of respecting boundaries—even in moments of excitement.
Social media was flooded with reactions from fans, many of whom defended Arijit’s response, calling it justified and necessary. Supporters pointed out that while live performances often stir strong emotions, physical boundaries should never be crossed—especially when it may cause discomfort or injury to the performer.
“He handled it way more respectfully than most would. Arijit is still humble even when upset,” one fan tweeted.
“People forget artists are humans too. Glad he spoke up,” another user commented.
The incident serves as a reminder of the importance of audience conduct at live events. While the energy and enthusiasm of fans are vital to the concert experience, they should never come at the cost of the artist’s safety or comfort.
Arijit Singh, who has built a reputation over the years as one of Bollywood’s most humble and grounded artists, rarely makes headlines for controversy. His calm and composed nature both on and off stage has earned him immense respect. This rare moment of confrontation, therefore, underscores how serious the situation must have been.
Despite the disruption, Arijit resumed his performance with grace, demonstrating once again why he is loved not just for his voice, but also for his character. There has been no official statement from the singer or his management regarding the incident.
As the video continues to circulate, fans are hoping that this will serve as a learning moment for concertgoers to remember that even their favorite stars are human beings who deserve respect and personal space.
