[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text dp_text_size=”size-4″]Pakistani singer Bilal Saeed, renowned for his hit song “Hogai Ghalti,” faced backlash after a video of him tossing a microphone into a concert crowd went viral. The incident reportedly occurred at the Punjab Group of Colleges (PGC) Youth Musical Festival in Phalia, prompting widespread criticism and concerns about the singer’s behavior.
Taking to Instagram to address the situation, Saeed’s statement lacked a formal apology and instead centered on justifying his actions as a performer caught off guard. The video, rapidly circulating online, captured Saeed abruptly stopping his performance and hurling the microphone towards the audience. Speculation arose that the outburst was triggered by inappropriate gestures from certain concertgoers, many of whom were likely young students.

In his Instagram statement, Saeed acknowledged the incident, describing the stage as his sanctuary and expressing how performing allows him to escape worries and connect with fans. However, he swiftly shifted focus to the disrespect he felt towards the stage and his craft, implying that a misbehaving fan had tarnished the sanctity of his performance space.
While attempting to convey his love for fans, Saeed’s apology fell short, merely stating that “sometimes that love can be overwhelming for both sides.” He defended his actions, attributing the incident to a one-time lapse in judgment and admitting he should have stayed on stage instead of walking off.
Unfortunately, this incident is not the first time Saeed has been embroiled in public controversy. In January 2021, another video surfaced online, depicting the singer involved in a violent altercation with a couple outside his Lahore residence. The footage showed Saeed physically assaulting both individuals, raising serious concerns about his temperament and conduct.
Following the 2021 incident, Saeed attempted to justify his actions, claiming he was protecting his family. However, similar to the recent mic-throwing episode, he did not offer a genuine apology for his aggressive behavior. These incidents have cast a shadow over Bilal Saeed’s public image, prompting questions about his ability to manage challenging situations and engage with fans in a respectful manner. The lack of sincere apologies in both instances leaves room for skepticism about the singer’s accountability and commitment to addressing his behavior.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
