"Sorry if I got carried away with my emotions."
After a brief concert clip sparked intense debate online, singer Asim Azhar chose to address the moment himself before speculation escalated further.
The video, which circulated widely across social platforms, showed Azhar pausing his performance at Ilma University in Karachi.
In the footage, recorded during his February 9, 2026, concert, the singer appeared visibly irritated while confronting a man approaching the stage.
The clip quickly prompted accusations of arrogance and anger, pushing Azhar to clarify the context through Instagram stories.
He wrote: “A video of me getting angry at the concert is circulating.”
He added that he normally avoids explanations but felt intervention was necessary, “before more misinformation spreads”
The incident itself unfolded when Azhar noticed someone climbing onto the stage mid-performance, interrupting the flow of the show.
Stopping the music, he addressed the individual firmly, saying: “Beta, you have to work really hard to come on the stage.”
When the man identified himself as a security bouncer, Azhar’s response became sharper and more pointed on stage.
He asked: “Then why are you coming?”
Azhar questioned why a bouncer would leave crowd control to step into the spotlight.
He further remarked: “Being a bouncer does not make you more special than my everyone else.”
While many viewers described the exchange as unnecessarily aggressive, Azhar insisted the situation involved audience safety concerns.

In his clarification, the ‘Meri Zindagi Hai Tu’ singer emphasised that he closely monitors crowds during every live performance.
He stated that he regularly stops songs if he senses danger, stressing that fan safety remains his highest priority.
According to Azhar, the man in question was not an enthusiastic fan but part of the concert security team.
He alleged that throughout the evening, the bouncer had been aggressively pushing women and teenagers in the audience.
Azhar said he observed this behaviour from the stage and grew increasingly uncomfortable watching the situation unfold.
“Before I could say something, he directly jumped on the stage.”
When confronted, the bouncer reportedly shouted, “abay main bouncer houn,” which Azhar admitted triggered his frustration.
He criticised what he viewed as a misuse of authority, arguing that security personnel should protect fans, not intimidate them.
Despite standing by his intentions, the singer acknowledged his tone could have been calmer during the public confrontation.
“Maybe next time I will speak more calmly lol but still will.”
He concluded his statement by apologising to viewers unsettled by the exchange, recognising its emotional intensity.
“Sorry if I got carried away with my emotions, but it was also important.”
While opinions remain divided, Asim Azhar’s clarification reframed the viral moment as one driven by concern rather than ego.
