Watch: Karan Aujla, ‘Tauba Tauba’ Singer, Confronts Fan After Shoe Thrown at Him During UK Concert


The singer confronts the audience member after being hit by a shoe during his UK tour performance.

Punjabi singer Karan Aujla was left outraged after a fan threw a shoe at him during his live concert at London’s O2 Arena. Videos and photos of the incident have surfaced on social media, showing the moment Aujla paused his performance mid-song after the shoe was hurled from the crowd, striking him on stage.

Clearly upset, Aujla addressed the person responsible, saying, “Hold on! Who was that? I’m f*****g telling you to come up on the stage. Let’s do one-to-one right now. I know how to fight. Don’t be throwing your shoes in shame.” He urged the individual to confront him directly, adding, “Come on, please. I don’t want you to see anything wrong. Be respectful.”

He also responded with a touch of humor, saying, “I am not singing that bad that you hit me with shoes.” Aujla invited anyone with an issue to speak to him on stage rather than resort to violence. The individual responsible was eventually escorted out by security.

Reacting to the video, a fan wrote, “Handled well without offending.” 

A tweet read, “Someone threw a shoe at Karan Aujla in the London O2 arena. They are lucky he did a whole show. He refused to perform at Rock in Rio, which is one of the world’s biggest festivals for these people, and he gave back by throwing a shoe. So sad for you, my goat.”

A person said, “I just want to clear you, everyone, the guy who threw the shoe at Karan Aujla just wants him to sign on that shoe so that he threw that shoe on him, so please don’t promote fake news. And that’s not a Way to get autograph of any artist you can’t do like that #karanaujla.” 

“I was there. It was not scripted. The guy who threw shoe was kicked out,” a tweet read

Karan Aujla, who is on his UK tour, will next be seen performing in India as part of his debut multi-city tour.
