Popular Pasoori singer Shae Gill was injured during a live performance in Islamabad when a drone camera struck her hand, prompting immediate medical attention and sparking a fresh debate about safety at live music events.
The incident occurred on December 28, 2025, at the Park View City Grand Carnival, a three-day family-oriented event featuring live performances from several renowned Pakistani artists, including Sahir Ali Bagga and Falak Shabbir. While Gill was performing, a high-speed aerial drone, reportedly being operated by an inexperienced individual, flew directly towards her and caused a deep cut on her hand.
Taking to Instagram after the accident, Shae Gill reassured her fans that she was largely fine and has begun recovering after receiving medical treatment, including a tetanus injection as a precaution. “I’m okay now,” she wrote, expressing gratitude to followers for their well-wishes.
The unexpected drone mishap during the Islamabad concert reignited online conversations about event safety and the use of drones at crowded venues, particularly when controlled by operators lacking professional training. Many industry insiders emphasize that stringent safety protocols are essential, especially for technological equipment near performers and audiences.
In a similar context of accident reporting and recovery timelines, athletes such as Michael Neser have had to adjust their careers after injuries, with structured rehabilitation plans often detailed online for fans and sports communities to follow. For example, a report on Michael Neser’s hamstring injury and comeback highlights the importance of careful recovery after impact-related injuries, whether in sports or performance environments.
Gill, who shot to international fame with Pasoori, the globally celebrated track she performed alongside Ali Sethi, has regularly headlined major concerts across Pakistan since her breakout in 2022. Now recovering, the singer’s ordeal serves as a reminder of the unpredictable risks performers face and the need for enhanced safety standards at major concerts and festivals across the country.
