Kailash Kher loses cool during live performance at Khelo India University Games opening ceremony

The popular singer also lashed out at the event organisers.

Singer Kailash Kher recently lost his cool and lashed out at the organisers after his live performance was reportedly cut short during the inauguration of the Khelo India University Games 2022 in Lucknow. Upset with the mismanagement at the event, Kher rebuked the organisers and gave them a mouthful. He also asked them to learn some manners.

"Tameez seekho. Hoshiyari jhaad rahe ho," the singer was heard saying in a viral video on social media. Ek ghanta humko intezar karaya uske baad tameez naam ko koi cheez hi nahi hai. Kya hai ye Khelo India. Khelo India tab hai jab hum khush hain, gharwale khush honge to baharwale khush honge. Tameez seekho. Hoshiyari jhaad rahe ho. Kisi ko kaam karna aata nahi hai, agar bolna chahenge to itna bol denge ki chhod dijiye sab (Learn some politeness. I was forced to wait for an hour, and you have no manners. What exactly is this Khelo India? When people at home are satisfied, only those overseas will be happy. Learn some manners. You're trying to appear intelligent, yet you do not know how to do your job. If I start talking about it, please stop...)"

Kher performed the official song of the Khelo India - Har Dil Mein Desh at the Khelo India University Games event, which had Prime Minister Modi as the Chief Guest.

In another video, he was seen charging at the organisers and shouting at them for interrupting his live performance. Reportedly, the Padma Shri award-winning singer was asked to cut short his event leading to him lashing out at the event organisers.

The 49-year-old artist, dissatisfied with the venue's poor preparations, even evoked Prime Minister Narendra Modi's name (and relationship) to express his discontent. At a certain moment, the artist appeared dissatisfied with the venue's mismanagement and gave the organizers a good earful.

Kher stated that he should be given at least 1-1.5 hours on stage once asked to perform. He also added that everybody adores him and that he wishes to touch the feet of every Indian, but that everything should be organized. He went on to say that if such issues are not addressed, things will continue to go haywire.

“Humko saans chadh raha hai, fir bhi hum naach raha hain, ga raha hain, pagla raha hain. Thoda is baat pe bhi dhyan dijiye. Dekhiye itna paglaye huye bhi hai koi. Zyada commando giri waha dikhayije jaha zarurat hai. Hum apne hain. Hum bahut tadap tadap ke santo ke beech se aaye hain bhaiya. Hum filmi gayak nahi hain, yaad rakhna. Hum Bharat ke liye jeetein hain, Bharat ke liye marenge. (I'm gasping for air but still dancing and singing. At the very least, watch how enthusiastically someone is performing. There's no need to rush around with me. I am your own. I arrived after a considerable scuffle among saints. I'm not a movie singer. I live for, and will die for, my nation.)"
