Neeraj Madhav calls off UK music tour, says he faced verbal abuse, attempt of physical assault

Actor Neeraj Madhav disclosed that he had to abruptly end his music tour in the United Kingdom after facing unprofessional behaviour and mistreatment from the event organizers. 

In a post shared on Instagram, Neeraj Madhav stated that he had to withdraw from the tour and alleged that he and his team members faced attempted physical assault and verbal abuse during an event in Dublin. 

“Leaving London with a heavy heart. Worst experience ever. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to complete my UK tour. Anybody booked your tickets to see me perform, please get a refund,” Neeraj Madhav said in his note.

“It is with a heavy heart that we must address the recent unfortunate events surrounding our involvement with Blackjack Pvt ltd brd in London. We feel compelled to share our side of the story to ensure transparency and to shed light on the unprofessional conduct exhibited by the event organizers.”

“Throughout our interactions with the event organizers, we encountered numerous challenges and frustrations. Despite our best efforts to collaborate and overcome obstacles, we were met with disrespect, verbal abuse, and derogatory language. These actions culminated in a heated altercation on the night of the event in Dublin, during which derogatory terms were directed towards our team, including myself and our manager and even attempted physical attacks. If it was not for the people gathered around we would've got hurt.”

“As a result of this unacceptable behaviour, we made the difficult decision to withdraw from further participation in the tour. We could not in good conscience continue to subject ourselves to such mistreatment and disrespect. We firmly believe in upholding professional standards and maintaining a positive working environment, which unfortunately was not upheld by the organizers."

"It is deeply disheartening that instead of addressing the situation with maturity and professionalism, the organizers chose to escalate the conflict further. Their decision to publicly announce our termination from the tour without our consent is not only disrespectful but also false. We were not provided with any prior notification or opportunity to address the situation privately.”
