Monali Thakur was in Varanasi to perform live on December 22. But just 45 minutes into the show, the singer clarified to the audience at the venue how mismanaged the show was, and walked out.
Dalimss News shared a video on Instagram of the incident, where Monali is also seen apologising to the audience, while slamming the event organisers and blaming them for "stealing money."
In the widely circulated video, Monali says, "I am disheartened that my team and I were so excited to perform here. Let's not talk about the infrastructure and its condition, as that is the management's responsibility. I can't explain what they have done to the stage just so they can steal money."
"Time and again, I've said that I could injure my ankle here. My dancers have been telling me to calm down, but everything was a mess. We were trying because I am answerable to you all, and you come for me, right? So, you will hold me accountable for all of this," she added.
But when it came to calling out the organisers for their poor management, the Moh Moh Ke Dhaage singer did not mince her words.
"I hope I grow so big that I can take all the responsibility myself and never have to rely on any Tom, Dick, and Harry who are such a useless, unethical, and irresponsible, to begin with," she remarked.
But she ended her speech with an apology and a promise to come back soon for a better performance.
"I sincerely apologise that we have to shut down this show, but I am going to come back for sure. And I hope I can give you a much better event than this. So, forgive us," she concluded.
