Neha Kakkar recently made headlines after a video of her getting emotional during her Melbourne concert went viral. Reports suggest she arrived nearly three hours late, which didn’t sit well with some fans. While addressing the crowd and apologising, she broke down on stage—only to be met with boos from a section of the audience, with some even shouting, “Go back."

Neha Kakkar has yet to address the incident herself, but her brother, singer Tony Kakkar, came to her defense. He slammed trolls for mocking her emotional moment on stage, standing up for his sister amid the backlash.

Sharing a video on his Instagram handle, Tony wrote, “Fans bhi rote hain.. Fans ka rona fake nahi toh artist ka kaise fake?" In response, Neha commented, “I love you the most, bhaiyu."

“Queen she is, My sister.. My Jaan," captioned Tony.

On Monday evening, Tony Kakkar took to social media with a series of cryptic posts, seemingly addressing the controversy around Neha Kakkar’s Melbourne concert without naming anyone. He painted a scenario, writing, “Suppose I invite you to my city for an event and take full responsibility for all arrangements—booking your hotel, car, airport pickup, and tickets. Now, imagine you arrive only to find that nothing has been booked. No car at the airport, no hotel reservation, and no tickets. In that situation, who is to blame?"

Tony Kakkar further questioned the backlash Neha faced at her Melbourne concert, writing, “Artiste maryada mein rahe, aur janta?" (Should only the artist maintain dignity, but not the audience?).

The viral video showed Neha Kakkar apologizing profusely to her fans. She broke into tears, as she said, “Guys, you are really sweet! You have been patient. Itni der se aap log wait kar rahe ho. I hate it, maine life mein kabhi kisi ko wait nahi karwaya hai. Aap itni der se wait kar rahe ho, I’m so sorry! It means a lot to me. I will remember this evening forever. Aaj aap log mere liye itna kimti time nikaal kar aaye ho. I will make sure that I will make you all dance."

While some audience members consoled and cheered for her, many others expressed their disappointment. The video also captured angry voices from the crowd, with some shouting, “Go back! Rest in your hotel." One man was heard saying, “This is not India, you’re in Australia." Another added, “We have been waiting for three hours."
