Sunidhi Chauhan Nearly Gets Hit By A Bottle On Stage; Here's What Happens Next

When you go to a concert, it’s as if you’ve entered a new realm where your favourite music comes alive and is no longer just available on CD or vinyl. As you immerse yourself in a sea of like-minded individuals, all anxious to experience the exhilaration of a live performance, the excitement grows. However, it taints what ought to be a celebration of music and talent when fans act disrespectfully towards the performing artist by hurling objects at them and interfering with performances.

A viral video now shows singer Sunidhi Chauhan’s reaction after someone in the audience hurled a water bottle at her while she was performing. The bottle landed right next to her and she was noticeably startled. She stopped singing and asked the audience, “Yeh kya ho raha hai? Bottle phekne se kya hoga? Show ruk jayega. Do you want that?” which roughly translates to, “What’s going on? What will you get out of throwing bottles? The show will come to a stop. Do you want that?”

Sunidhi Chauhan was at Shri Guru Ram Rai University’s annual fest Zenith 2024, as per reports. She was performing one of her most famous songs when she was nearly hit by a bottle.

The video was shared on Instagram on May 3 and within a few hours, it has collected 3 million views. It has also garnered more than 60,000 likes and several comments.

Social media users flocked to the comment section as soon as they saw the video. Discussions surrounding the video also focused on how severely annoying and challenging such audience conduct could be for the performers. In addition to causing emotional discomfort, such disrespectful acts can make artists doubt their relationship with their audience.

One user said, “Shreya and Sunidhi have my whole heart just because of this. Humble nature. Mature mind. They know how to handle these kinds of situations.” Another user commented, “This is such pathetic behaviour she deserves complete respect.” While a third user wrote, “She could’ve easily left the show. But she didn’t, Queen for a reason.” And a fourth user expressed disappointment saying, “So sad to see this.”
