The singer dealt with her respectfully and kept talking to her. In a recent conversation with Hindustan Times, Zubeen Garg addressed the matter and her suspension. He said, “She shouldn’t have been suspended. I am posting on social media as well, I got to know on Wednesday, the concert happened a week ago. It’s not a bad thing that she came, hugged, and cried. I am feeling bad about it as someone she admires. I don’t know exactly what led to the suspension. I will take some action for sure on this.”

The singer continued, “All this happens only sometimes. I try to always stop it and cooperate with people, with their emotions. People adore me a lot, so they don’t do this often.” He also talked about the incident in a social media post. He shared a news clipping and wrote, “I know there are norms attached to uniforms. But love is, and must, not be a punishable offense.”
