Bollywood icon Madhuri Dixit Nene has found herself embroiled in controversy after many attendees of her ongoing USA-Canada tour launched an online attack against her for arriving three hours late to the event in Toronto. Dubbing the show as “poorly organized,” one person even went so far as to say that the advertisement for the program was misleading, as it didn’t explicitly mention that it would predominantly be a chat show, with performances few and far between.
Taking to Instagram to share a video of Madhuri dancing to her iconic track “Mera Piya Ghar Aaya” from Yaraana (1995) during the Toronto leg of her ongoing “The Golden Diva of Bollywood” tour, one netizen wrote, “If I could give you one piece of advice, it’s not to attend the Madhuri Dixit tour… Save your money.” He added, “What an absolute shit show of a night… and they get PAID for that?”
Another user commented, “Worst show one can ever go to. Least worried about the audience’s time. 3 hours late and then full of lame talks.” Meanwhile, another Instagrammer simply noted, “Horrible, horrible show… Avoid it!!!!”
Since Madhuri is scheduled to visit New Jersey, Boston, Chicago, Houston, and New York as part of the tour in the coming days, it remains to be seen if the organisers will change the format of the event in any manner. The actor and her team have yet to respond to the delay in the Toronto show.
