Please bithao. Jaldi karo… itna time jaa raha hain mera maalum hain? Apka cut off time aa jayga phir, baithao! Jaldi baitho! Baitho! Bahar niklo!

A comment read, “It was so disgusting that due to poor management by organisers, Sonu Sir had to intervene himself. So shameful.” A second comment read, “He actually had to manage the crowd and security himself. Because the management was so poor. Reading lots of reports on the internet about it.”

Everyone will have to do this here and everywhere while running the show for self-security...” In June 2022, KK fell ill while performing at Nazrul Mancha and was taken to CMRI hospital, where he was declared dead on arrival.
A few days ago, Sonu suffered a severe back spasm while performing live. "But excruciating, excruciating pain. Laga tha jaese ek needle mere spine mein laga rakhi hai. Itna sa yaha waha ho aur needle spine mein ghus jayegi (I felt as if a needle was pricking my spine. I would move a little and the needle would enter my spine). It was like that. Really bad," he said in a clip on his Instagram post.
