Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit faced severe criticism from fans after her concert in Toronto, Canada on November 2. Attendees claimed she arrived three hours late to the show scheduled for 7:30 pm, appeared only around 10:00 pm, and stayed for just one hour. Fans also accused her of not performing any dance numbers despite promotional materials suggesting a dance concert. Instead, the event featured unknown artists and concluded with a talk show format hosted by a reality TV contestant. Many audience members expressed disappointment over the misleading marketing, poor production quality, and lack of apology for the delay. The comment section on Madhuri's announcement post has since been disabled. This incident adds to a growing list of controversies involving Indian celebrities arriving late to international concerts, including similar incidents with singers Arijit Singh and Neha Kakkar.
Fan Complaints About Toronto Concert
Fans who attended the Toronto show at The Theatre at Great Canadian Toronto shared angry reviews online. They criticized the event for weak opening acts, poor choreography, and low production value. One attendee, who trained under Pandit Birju Maharaj, expressed disappointment that the legendary Kathak guru was not mentioned during the show. Another fan wrote that hundreds of dollars were spent expecting a memorable dance performance with a legendary actress, but instead they witnessed unknown artists. Many felt the marketing materials, which showed Madhuri dancing, misled audiences into believing it would be an actual concert rather than a talk show format.
