Udit Narayan: Aditya made a mistake, will issue a public apology

Singer Udit Narayan was in Haryana when all hell broke loose regarding his only son Aditya Narayan's misconduct with an airline personnel at Raipur airport. Udit woke up in shock to read about his son's misadventure.

Says the mortified father, "I was unaware of the developments until someone told me about it. I couldn't believe it. Aditya is not like that at all. Though he's our only child, my wife Deepa and I have brought him up with the correct values. So, I was sceptical about the truth of the incident until someone showed me the video. What can I say? We've all lost our cool at the airport at some point or another. Aditya was unfortunate enough to have been caught on video.

Not that Udit is justifying his son's behaviour. "Not at all! If Aditya has misbehaved it is wrong. As soon as I get back to Mumbai, I'll have him issue a public apology. Right now, he's very scared and nervous. Making it worse is the attack from all corners as though he has committed a major crime. I agree it's wrong to misbehave in public. But in my humble opinion, it's equally wrong to attack someone who is caught on the wrong foot. Aditya is a self-made child. He never took my help in anything he has achieved. Whatever he has achieved is on his own merit. We are proud of him.

Atleast he wants his son to issue an public apology

Hope Udit doesn't change his tune and start defending his son's actions

I think he spoke up because media persons were saying that either Aditya or Udit should apologise and were hounding them. Even the likes of Arnab said that Udit should speak up.

In this case, the media was hounding both of them and some media people were asking Udit to apologise on his son's behalf! He probably got fed up! 😃

😆 Media is messing up many things in INDIA...this is dangerous sign...

i hate the SOP's of Bollywood papa's...😆

That's really obnoxious, even for the media...

And Udit didn't issue an apology on his son's behalf (not yet anyway) as some here are saying
