Neha Bhasin Reacts To Backlash On Her 'Jutti Meri' Outfit During Live Performance, 'I'm Not N*ked..'

Neha Bhasin turned heads when she appeared for a live performance at the Bollywood Music Project concert. The singer took over the stage in a hot pink bodysuit with glitter heels and fishnet. However, while her performance wowed the entire internet, it was her outfit that left fans displeased, especially when she performed her beloved song, Jutti Meri, in that attire. The singer soon started receiving severe backlash for her choice, and now, she has reacted to the entire fiasco.

Neha Bhasin reacts to the backlash around her Bollywood Music Project concert outfit

Neha Bhasin is one of the most soulful voices in the industry. However, her recent performance at the BMP concert seems to be going viral for all the wrong reasons. And now, the singer has finally reacted to the chaos around her choice of outfit. Neha took to her Instagram handle on October 11, 2025. She started the video by acknowleging what happened and said:

"Bohot kalesh chal raha hai ki 'tauba tauba tauba, Neha ne kya pehen liya. I was performing a mix of Bollywood songs and Punjabi folk songs, but due to the rain, all of our performances were cut short. I wanted to wear something more feminine for Jutti Meri, like just add on a beautiful skirt. Obviously, jaise aap log moral obligation samajhtey hai waisa kuch nahi hai, but I feel har gaane ka ek feel hota hai."

In the same video, Neha Bhasin further shared that due to the time crunch, she didn't have the opportunity to change her outfit. However, she doesn't understand what the chaos was about, as she wasn't doing anything inappropriate. Neha acknowledged that the outfit was not apt for the song, but she also stood her ground that it wasn't something that needed to be blown out of proportion. She was quoted as saying:

"If I had gotten off stage for 45 seconds or a minute, ya toh mera last ganna cut jaata ya meri performance extend ho jaati, and I would have eaten into Salim Sulaiman's time, because we were already running one hour late for the whole concert. But the bigger question is, why is it such a big deal? I am not n*ked, I am not doing anything inappropriate."

Neha Bhasin says she is not here to please anyone

In the same conversation, she asserted the work she had done for the Punjabi folk music and refused to let the unnecessary criticism tear her down. The singer shared that she is not going to apologise for her clothes, as she was not there to please anyone. She assured that she has taken the creative criticism from the fans and stated:

"10 saal, Punjabi folk ko main stage pe laane ke liye maine aur mere husband ne kaam kiya. Har tarha ke rejection ko saha, tab sabne bol diya ye toh niche music hai. Naa industry se support aaya naa audience se, tab maine nahi suna ki Neha Bhasin Punjabi folk culture ko aage leke jaa rahi hai. I am sorry, guys, but culture is not in my clothes, it's not in my food, it is in my sanskaar and mere sanskaar mere music mei hai."

Fans left divided by Neha Bhasin's video

While some fans were satisfied by the video shared by Neha, others pointed out that it still didn't justify what she wore. A user penned, "Sahi mai kese kapde pehen lete aa jati hai." Another wrote, "Abb jo marzi bolo.. it was a swimsuit…horrible dressing sense." A comment read, "Fazool pehna tha. Chalo pehn bhi lia tha to kamzkm jachta to bhi na.. 1% ni jacha wo outfit." A fan penned, "At least you addressed it for your audience. That's the biggest thing. Always a big fan and supporter. You are taking concerts of India to another level, and other singers are getting inspired by you."
