MUMBAI: Madhuri Dixit’s ongoing Canada Tour has stirred controversy after attendees criticised the event, alleging delays and confusion about its format. Initially, local organisers blamed the actress’s team for a delayed performance. However, the National Promoter, Atique Sheikh, has now issued a clarification stating that Madhuri Dixit was on time, and the issue stemmed from a local promoter’s miscommunication.
At a recent press conference, Sheikh explained that the event was never meant to be a concert, but a Fan Meet & Greet featuring a fireside chat and interactive session with Madhuri. He noted that some fans were wrongly informed that it was a concert, leading to misunderstanding.
“Madhuri ji has always been professional and punctual. She arrived at 9:30 PM for her scheduled performance and went on stage between 9:45 PM and 10:00 PM, as planned,” Sheikh stated.
According to the organisers, Indian Idol performers Shivangi Sharma and Tanmay Chaturvedi entertained audiences from 7:30 PM to 9:00 PM, while Madhuri also attended a Meet and Greet session at 5:30 PM. The promoters emphasised that there was no delay or lapse from the actress or her team.
They concluded that the confusion was caused solely by the incorrect information shared by local promoters, reaffirming Madhuri Dixit Nene’s reputation for punctuality and professionalism.
