Now, the Indian artist has filed a complaint about the incident at the Chembur Police Station
As per Indian Express, the Kal Ho Naa Ho singer spoke to reporters and said that the scuffle happened only because the man wanted a selfie
Nigam, albeit, expressed his annoyance towards the selfie culture, saying: “Aap logon ka jo selfie aur photograph ka jo chala hua hai na, koi samajhta nahi hai”
The artist then narrated what happened at the concert, “After the concert, I was coming down from the stage when a man held me
Then he pushed Hari and Rabbani who came to save me
Then I fell on the steps
If I would have been on the side, I would have fallen too
Rabbani could have died today if there were some iron rods lying on the ground
He was pushed in such a way… You could see in the video… Even I was about to fall
” Rabbani Khan is the son of Nigam's maestro
He fell down from the stage and suffered several injuries and was immediately taken to Zen Hospital in Chembur
Nigam added that he has filed a complaint so that people understand the consequences of their actions
The singer’s team said: “Sonu Nigam is shaken by this whole incident
He has not suffered any kind of injury
But Rabbani's treatment is going on
” Meanwhile, Shive Sena (UBT) leader Prakash Phaterpekar, father of the accused, said: "Sonu Nigam was getting down from the stage when some people rushed to take a selfie
During that time, bodyguards were trying to push those people away, but by mistake, one person from Sonu Nigam's team was pushed by mistake
Nothing has happened to Sonu Nigam," reported by India Today
As of now, the purported video and the statements are being verified by the police
