Udit Narayan has been leading all the headlines after a video of him kissing a female fan on her lips went viral.

After Udit’s video went viral, the singer received a lot of hate from netizens.

Abhijeet Bhattacharya defends Udit Narayan

Now, in a recent interview with News18 Showsha, Udit Narayan’s colleague and friend, Abhijeet Bhattacharya, defended him. He stated that since Udit is a popular singer, these episodes are common. Stating how the girls were after him, and he didn’t forcefully kiss anyone, Abhijeet said:

“He’s Udit Narayan! Ladkiyaan unke peeche padhi thi. He didn’t pull anyone close to him. I’m sure that every time Udit performs, his wife accompanies him as a co-singer. Let him enjoy his success! He’s a romantic singer. He’s also a big khiladi and I’m an anari. Koi unke saath khelne ki koshish mat karo.”

In the same interview, Abhijeet recalled a similar incident that happened with him once in front of veteran singer, Lata Mangeshkar. Recalling the ‘khatarnak kiss’, he shared:

“It has happened to me in the past too. When I was relatively new in the industry, during a concert in South Africa, teen-chaar ladkiyon ke mere gaal pe itna khatarnak kiss kiya ki main stage pe jaa hi nahi pa raha tha. And all of this happened right in front of Lata (Mangeshkar) ji. I had lipstick marks on my cheeks.”

Udit Narayan reacted to his kiss controversy

Meanwhile, Udit Narayan reacted to the controversy surrounding his kiss and called it a manifestation of the love his fans have for him. The singer also stated that he has no regrets about what happened and called it pure love and admiration. Moreover, the singer took a dig at those calling him out on the viral video and stated that he felt sorry for them.

The Pehla Nasha singer also expressed his gratitude towards his trollers for making him famous and said:

“Fans itne deewane hote hain na. Hum log aise nahi hain, hum decent log hain. Some people encourage this and show their love through this. Udaake kya karna hai ab iss cheez ko? 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.”
