During a major concert in Nepal on Nov 24th, 2023, similar to Bryan Adams’ shows, Indian singer Arijit Singh made a surprising gesture. The moment, starting at the 15:14 mark in the video, began when Singh was handed a red cloth to sign. He asked for the music to be stopped and then addressed the crowd.
Singh shared with the audience, “Those who really want to hear my music, listen. I don’t like signing autographs. I don’t like it at all. I don’t like photographs; I don’t like autographs. They’re a waste of time for me. That’s why I’m doing it while singing. It’s better if I don’t have to, but what to do. You guys are not listening..”
Even after expressing his dislike for autographs and photographs, Singh continued to sign autographs gracefully during his performance. This showed his dedication to his fans, contrasting his personal feelings with the expectations of being a famous artist.
