Aditya Narayan Concert Row: Aditya Narayan, a singer and television show host, stirred controversy on social media when a video surfaced depicting him discarding an individual's phone during a performance at Rungta R2 College in Bhilai, Chhattisgarh. This incident garnered significant attention and sparked displeasure among online audiences. However, recently, the event manager confirmed that the boys were pulling Aditya’s feet as a result of which the singer got frustrated. Now, the student has himself opened up about the whole incident.

Student Says 'I Feel Very Different'

In a conversation with Zoom, the student, identified as Lovkesh Chandravanshi, said,  “Whatever happened was so sudden. I had not expected this to happen to me. Alag sa feel ho raha hai (I feel very different). The concert was going on and I was standing in front of the stage. Aditya sir was performing and he was also taking everyone's phones and clicking selfies for them. I was right by the stage so I also gave my phone to him for the selfie but he hit my hand with his mic and then threw my phone away for no reason.”

He further added, “My brother was standing next to me too. Aditya is a huge star and we love him that is why we went. He was taking selfies with everyone so I thought he would take them with me too, that's why I gave my phone.”

The student went on to state, “He should have not done what he did to me even if it was some other student. We are all his fans and we love him a lot that is why we go to his concert. Hamare yaha kalakaro ki kami nahi hai vaise (We don't have dearth of artistes in our country).”

Event Manager Defends Aditya Narayan

Earlier, the event manager defended Aditya Narayan, stating that the boy was not from college and was an outsider. He said, “That boy was not even a college student, he must be someone from outside the college. He was constantly dragging Aditya's feet nonstop. He was very irritating. He banged his phone on Aditya's feet multiple times. After that only did he lose his cool. He must have taken almost 200 selfies with this student.”

He said, “The whole concert went smoothly apart from this. After this incident, the show went on for almost two hours. If the student was right, he would have come forward.”
