Indian Idol is back with its 11 seasons last week with Vishal Dadlani, Anu Malik, and Neha Kakkar as the judges’ panel like last year. Judge Neha Kakkar enjoys a huge fandom but recently a contestant’s forced gesture towards her left her shocked.
In a recent promo of the show, during the auditions, a contestant dressed in a Rajasthani attire walks up to the stage with gifts in his hands and teddy bear. Neha got onto the stage and he asked her whether she remembers him.
Apparently, Neha had met him earlier, she took the gifts from him and moved towards to hug him as a Thank You gesture. However, the contestant crossed the boundaries when he kissed her and hugged tightly. Host Aditya Narayan tried to stop him but couldn’t.
The incident left Neha Kakkar and co-judges Vishal and Anu shocked. Neha was seen uncomfortable with his act in the clip.
Here’s what happened:
The whole incident left Neha Kakkar’s fan angry and they also told Neha to be careful about all this as anything can happen. One user termed it as sexual assault while the other one said forcibly kissing without consent is a sexual assault.
Neha was the judge of the show in the previous season also and she was often trolled for being so emotional. For the unversed, Neha was a contestant of Indian Idol but was voted out.
