Another wrote, ''Highly unprofessionalism. This is not justified. If he is having a problem playing the guitar he should have done this backstage. While performing doing this sort of nuisance is not accepted.''

The third user wrote,'' Maybe his nails got chipped while playing the guitar. Why would he do such a thing? Lol.''

A few days earlier, Arijit was not able to recognise actress Mahira Khan, while he sang ''Zaalima''. The song from the movie Raees that features her and Shah Rukh Khan. Stopping his performance, the singer apologised to Mahira.

Later, the actress took to Instagram to share a video of the concert on her Instagram page. "I wasn't meant to be here for this.. but.. I guess I was. You know what I mean? What a pleasure it is to watch an artist perform.. whirling in joy, surrounded by love. But more than that, it's beautiful when you see humility in an artist.. because he knows, it isn't him.. he's just been blessed from up above. Stay blessed @arijitsingh Wah!" she captioned the clip.
