Neha Kakkar made headlines after a video of her breaking down at her Melbourne concert went viral. The singer arrived late on stage alleging that the organisers didn’t provide basic arrangements. Now, Australian event planners Pace A and Bikram Singh Randhawa have refuted her claims, calling them “untrue”. “She kept saying things like, ‘I won’t go now; I won’t do this,” said the event planner.
In a conversation with Siddharth Kannan, rapper and event host Pace D said, “Beat Production from Melbourne was the one who invited Neha Kakkar. Now that both parties have come forward and spoken openly, then why can’t we? We were there and saw everything. I spoke to Preet Pabla bhai, who was the event organiser. I asked him everything. He’s a very nice and genuine person. That’s when I found out that she didn’t arrive on time and there were multiple delays. He told me that she kept saying things like, ‘I won’t go now; I won’t do this.’"
“The crowd was ready and cheering, expecting her to come on stage. But she showed up at 10 PM — that’s two and a half hours late since the scheduled time was 7:30 PM. So the crowd got upset and angry. In Australia, people value their time. People had made special efforts to come with their families. Some even bought tickets worth AUD 300 — that’s around Rs 15,000 to Rs 16,000,” said Bikram Singh Randhawa.
Pace D said, “Only 700 people? Until more people come in and this place fills up, I’m not going to perform.”
“This was such a big show, the entire tech rider was in place. There were opening acts, and everyone performed. Her mic and complete setup were fully ready. So the things she’s been saying don’t seem to be true, because we saw with our own eyes that everything was set up properly,” he further explained.
