After facing flak over the incident, Bilal Saeed gave clarification: “The stage has always been my whole world. I have always felt the most complete and the most alive while performing! I forget my sickness, stress, worries. I leave everything behind when I perform for my fans.
“No matter what, nothing should have come in the way of me and the respect that my stage deserved from me.
“I love my fans and sometimes that love can be overwhelming for both sides. It wasn’t the first time someone was misbehaving in the crowed but it was definitely the first time I gave the wrong reaction! I should have never left the stage.”
