Neha Kakkar's delay at Melbourne concert spark outrage; Tony defends, "no car, no hotel, who's to blame?"

Indian singer Neha Kakkar recently found herself at the center of social media attention after arriving nearly three hours late for her concert in Melbourne, Australia. Videos of the singer breaking down in tears and apologizing to the audience have gone viral, leading to a storm of reactions online. Amid the backlash, her brother, musician Tony Kakkar, shared a cryptic post, seemingly defending Neha and shifting the blame elsewhere.

Following the controversy, Tony Kakkar took to Instagram to share a thought-provoking message. Without naming anyone directly, he described a hypothetical scenario where someone is invited to an event with all arrangements supposedly taken care of, hotel booking, airport pickup, and tickets- only to arrive and find nothing arranged. He ended with the question, “Who is to blame?” His caption, “Ek Sawaal Hai... Kisi ke liye nahi hai... Bas sawaal hai... Hypothetically,” hinted that his message was a subtle response to the situation involving Neha.

This post has left netizens speculating whether he was defending his sister, suggesting that the fault lay with the event organizers rather than Neha. During the event, Neha, visibly emotional, addressed the audience and expressed her regret for the delay. She reassured them that she had never made anyone wait like this in her life and that she was heartbroken over the situation. “You have been waiting for so long, and I feel terrible about it,” she said.

However, the audience's reaction was mixed. While some sympathized with her, others were visibly frustrated. In viral videos, attendees were heard shouting remarks such as, “This isn't India, you're in Australia,”and sarcastically applauding what they believed to be an act. Some even suggested that Neha should go back and rest after making them wait for hours. The incident quickly became a hot topic on social media, with users debating who was truly at fault.
