Sunidhi Chauhan BREAKS Silence On Bottle Thrown At Stage During Dehradun Concert: 'I Could've Got Hurt'

A few days ago, Sunidhi Chauhan performed for a university fest in Dehradun. Out of excitement, fans flung bottles of water in the air. One such bottle reached the stage when it hit Sunidhi’s microphone. Videos of this incident went viral across social media, leaving the singer’s fans enraged. However, Sunidhi has finally addressed the matter and said that it wasn’t intentional.

Speaking to the Hindustan Times, Sunidhi Chauhan said, “I was performing my second last song and the crowd was having a blast. They were hurling bottles in the air and one fell on the stage as it had water in it. When I said, ‘Yeh kya ho raha hai? Show ruk jayega,’ so they responded sweetly, ‘No, please don’t’. The kids were just having fun,”

Recalling the incident, Sunidhi mentioned that the bottle hit her microphone. She added, “Of course, if the mic was closer to my mouth, I could have got hurt and would have perhaps responded differently.” She also added, “Having said that, I am aware of some instances from the past when people deliberately misbehaved with the performers and threw things at them, aur woh galat hai. I strictly condemn that.”

For the unversed, a viral video shows singer Sunidhi Chauhan’s reaction after someone in the audience hurled a water bottle at her while she was performing. The bottle landed right next to her and she was noticeably startled. She stopped singing and asked the audience, “Yeh kya ho raha hai? Bottle phekne se kya hoga? Show ruk jayega. Do you want that?”
