Singer Neha Kakkar was supposed to perform at her Melbourne concert, but the audience had to wait for her for three hours. When the singer reached on stage to perform audience started to backlash her and asked her to go back. Explaining why she was late, Neha Kakkar ended up crying on stage. Her brother Tony Kakkar took to Instagram to defend her.

Without taking any names, he posted, “Suppose I invite you to my city for an event and take full responsibility for all arrangements - booking your hotel, car, airport pickup, and tickets. Now, imagine you arrive only to find that nothing has been booked. No car at the airport, no hotel reservation, and no tickets. In that situation, who is to blame?”

In the caption, he wrote, “Ek Sawaal Hai.. Kisi ke liye nahi hai.. Bas sawaal hai.. Hypothetically. (There is one question… Not asking anyone… It is just a question… Hypothetically)”
