Bilal Saeed tries to clear the air responding to viral video clip
Singer Bilal Saeed landed in a serious controversy after a video clip showing him engaged in a street fight went viral on social media.
The viral video clip showed the Baari singer engaged in a fight with his brother and hitting a woman on the street in presence of policemen in Lahore’s locality.
In an effort to clear the air, Bilal Saeed shared a video on his social media showing his home ransacked with a message saying: “This is just a glimpse of what I have suffered. I never spoke about it. People should know that being famous is not a privilege but in fact, can be problematic sometimes. I believe in bodily autonomy and safety for all.”
“Violence against anyone whether man or woman is wrong but It is my right to protect myself and my loved ones if I am physically and verbally harmed and threatened. I am not proud of engaging in a physical fight but I am only human and it was a reaction to all the torture I suffered. I am sorry that my fans had to see this side of me and I do not intend to support or promote violence,” he further added.

He further added, “When the safety and dignity of a person are violated and jeopardized over and over again, he, unfortunately, is left with no option to react.”
