On the other hand, Arijit was also in the news last month for sustaining an injury while performing live in Riddhi Siddhi Landmark, Aurangabad, Maharashtra. Mid-performance, a fan pulled Arijit's hand. Stopping his performance, Arijit told the female fan, "If I am not able to perform, you will not be able to have fun, That is as simple as that. You're pulling me like that; now my hand is shaking. Should I leave?" Reportedly, Arijit continued to sing after the incident.
