Vishal Dadlani reportedly asked stand-up comedian Raji Srivastava to get off the stage during the Rajiv Gandhi Awards recently.
Mid-Day reports that the funnyman decided to put up an impromptu act to the
Bachna Ae Haseeno track. However Vishal, who was on the stage performing was not particularly amused with what he considered as intrusion.
"It was just an on-the-spot, flash decision to liven up their act. The music and melody just made me feel like dancing, so I went up to do a few steps. Everyone started clapping and cheering when I did a jig," Raju Srivastava was quoted by
Mid-Day as saying.
The comedian further told the paper, "There were several Congress bigwigs in the front row like Vilasrao Deshmukh and Kripa Shankar Singh who were laughing aloud and cheering me. But Vishal didn't seem to like it."
So the singer-composer reportedly asked him to get off the stage in full public view!
"Maybe Vishal thought I was eating into his footage. He came and told me in my ears that don't do this now and that I could do it later," Raju said.
Vishal Dadlani, who is in England reportedly remained unavailable for comments.
