During a performance in Uttarakhand, a leader had insulted Daler Mehndi by accusing him of singing while drunk. There were demands for an apology from him and many celebs criticized the incident. Now after a long controversy, Daler Mehndi himself has broken his silence on this. Along with wishing Diwali from the official social media account, he wrote, ‘For years, I have been getting a lot of love from people for my songs and on every platform. But it is difficult to put into words what has happened to me in recent times and what I have felt. I can’t thank you enough for the way you all stood by me, spoke in my support, trusted me and loved me. He further wrote, ‘In this difficult time, my family remained my biggest strength. My brother Mika supported me strongly. My wife Taran gave me courage with her courage and unwavering faith. Gurdeep faced every situation calmly and my daughters Rabab, Ajit and Prabhjot gave me unconditional love. Every member of my family supported me in their own way. I am lucky that they all are with me. Heartfelt thanks to all the people of the music and entertainment industry, those who know my condition from every corner of the country, my fans and the entire country. Daler Mehndi further wrote in the note, ‘Family is not only the people in whose house we are born, but also those people who stand with us in difficult times. Today I am able to understand it deeply. Often an artist is discussed when he is no longer in this world and is not present to hear his praise. I consider myself lucky that I got a chance to see and feel so much love in my life. Read what is the whole controversy of Daler Mehndi? Daler Mehndi gave a performance at ‘Siddhpeeth Maa Kunjapuri Tourism and Development Fair’ in Tehri on 18th October. He was singing intermittently, then Uttarakhand’s Health Minister Subodh Uniyal came on the stage and reprimanded him and said – You are fooling people by drinking alcohol, you are not even singing. Do you know that a singer was beaten up and left here? He was so beaten that even his father cannot come here now. Daler Mehndi did not answer and remained silent. He looked extremely uncomfortable, but after a while he started singing again. After the video of the incident surfaced, Daler Mehndi’s brother and singer Mika Singh got furious and said that Daler Mehndi never drank alcohol in his life. Mika told that Daler Mehndi was unwell, yet he performed for about one and a half hours. He also said that if the minister does not apologize, the artists will stop coming to Uttarakhand. Many celebs including Shilpa Shetty, Rajpal Yadav, Anupam Kher, Badshah, Shaan, Kapil Sharma strongly condemned the attitude of the minister. Minister said – Accepting resignation, but will not apologize. According to the report of Free Press Journal, Cabinet Minister Subodh Uniyal was asked what he would do if the senior leadership of Bharatiya Janata Party directs him to apologize to Daler Mehndi, then Uniyal said that he would choose to resign from his post instead of apologizing. He said that self-respect is more important than any position or thing in life and he will not compromise on it. Abhijeet Bhattacharya criticized Daler Mehndi, son Gurdeep replied. Recently, while performing at an event in Chhattisgarh, Abhijeet Bhattacharya said, ‘There was a case where the minister came on the stage and said that you are not singing, you are not able to stand. He was right, but he became a villain. But this happens at this stage. You guys, don’t let this happen in Chhattisgarh. I will sing out of tune, I will get tired, but I will sing live only. I will never betray you guys. I will not just move my mouth in the name of the song. Daler Mehndi’s son Gurdeep got enraged at Abhijeet’s statement. He defended his father and said that bad times could come any time. Gurdeep told the audience during a performance, ‘You will be happy to know that whatever we are singing, we are singing live, there is no live syncing. Thanks to Papa ji for this, once again applause for Daler Mehndi ji. I have learned to always sing live. Some mistakes happen in live songs. He further said, ‘There are some artists who give any statement anywhere for a few views. What Abhijeet Dada did recently, I don’t expect him to say anything like that, that too for such a legendary singer. The rest who were singing were singing live, I will send you their footage. He wasn’t lipsyncing. Rest of the bad times and good times can come any time.
