Shahid Kapoor Briefly Leaves Stage After Fan Surge at O’Romeo Song Launch

The pre-release push for Vishal Bhardwaj’s film continues under a pending lawsuit alleging an unauthorised biopic.

Overview

  • The disturbance occurred on February 6 at Mumbai’s Bandra Fort during the live launch of Paan Ki Dukaan, where invited fans rushed the stage after Shahid Kapoor called a few up to dance.
  • Security and bouncers cleared the platform, Shahid returned once order was restored, and the event proceeded with him addressing and thanking attendees.
  • Triptii Dimri stepped aside as the rush began, and multiple videos of the brief chaos and the resumed performance circulated on social media.
  • Paan Ki Dukaan features Shahid Kapoor with Disha Patani, with music by Vishal Bhardwaj, lyrics by Gulzar, vocals by Sukhwinder Singh and Rekha Bhardwaj, and choreography by Jani Master.
  • O’Romeo is slated for a February 13 theatrical release, produced by Sajid Nadiadwala and based on Hussain Zaidi’s work, while a civil suit by Sanober Shaikh alleges the film is an unauthorised portrayal of her father, Hussain Ustara.
