New Delhi: Popular Bollywood singer Shaan has finally reacted to the Assam concert controversy where he was allegedly attacked by paper balls. The singer during his performance at the Sarusajai stadium in Guwahati on October 28 had an unsavoury moment when upon singing a Bengali song, people threw paper balls at him.

Over one unfortunate incident it would be VeryWrong to Tarnish this Beautifull State!!! Whatever happened was in the heat of the moment .”
