Shaan denies being pelted by stones at Guwahati concert
Singer Shaan has urged the media to not spread ‘wild speculations and lies’ and denied being attacked by stones at a recent concert in Guwahati on october 29. Earlier on Tuesday news agency ANI reported that stones and paper balls were pelted at Shaanafter he sang a Bengali song at the concert.
“Complete lies!!! One Paper ticket folded up was thrown on stage by One Person after vigorously gestering and shouting to stop singing.. That’s all … please stop these wild speculations and lies,” Shaan wrote on Twitter.
The 46-year-old was performing in Guwahati’s Sarusajai Stadium when someone from the audience threw a paper ball at him after Shaan started singing a Bengali song. A visibly angry Shaan then stopped his performance and urged the miscreant to learn to respect the performer.
“If you don’t like it, you can go away. I had a high fever. I am on antibiotics. And still I am here performing all night for you,” Shaan told the crowd.
After the episode, the singer took to Twitter to share his thoughts. While replying to a social media user, who apologised to the singer for the ‘unfortunate incident,’ he said it would be wrong to tarnish Assam over one unfortunate incident.
“Just for the records …loved my Assam Tour!! Saw the most fascinating sights…made new friends..had huge turnouts at every concert.. Over one unfortunate incident it would be very wrong to Tarnish this Beautifull State!!! Whatever happened was in the heat of the moment,” Shaan tweeted.
