Actress and singer Saba Azad’s electrifying performance at the Lakme Fashion Week 2023 has definitely not gone unnoticed. I loved her confidence, energy, and overall vibe. In fact, it reminded me of many international pop singers! Yet, sadly, whenever a woman tries to go outside the conventional norms, the internet arrives with its unwarranted criticism. That’s exactly what is happening with Saba.
It was after Saba walked the ramp alongside Karisma Kapoor and Kalki Koechlin that she gave a power-packed performance on the ramp. The video from the event is now all over the internet and people (like always) have a lot of opinions.
Honestly, I am appalled by some of these comments.
Let’s set the record straight about Saba first – she’s more than just Hrithik Roshan’s girlfriend. Saba is a prominent name in the Indian indie music scene. She even co-founded the electronic band Madboy/Mink with actor and musician Imaad Shah back in 2012. But wait, there’s more! In 2010, she even launched her own theatre company, The Skins.
Now, about her performance at Lakme Fashion Week 2023. It was quirky and fun, like a breath of fresh air. Honestly, not everyone has that kind of confidence. And to label her unique style as an embarrassment or an attention-seeking stunt is not okay. I agree that art is subjective and we all can have our own opinions but one must remember that what does not fit their predefined boxes doesn’t mean that it’s wrong. The girl was there to have fun and looks like she did!
On a side note, I love how there were others who appreciated Saba and her performance.
I want to ask these “trolls” if they even have half the confidence to get on a stage, let alone perform! I bet a majority would fail, including me! And here they are trolling a woman who is not only exuding confidence but doing something that she absolutely loves. It’s time we all reflect on ourselves and applaud people instead of unnecessarily pulling them down.
Well, looking at Saba’s performance I can only imagine what a riot she and Hrithik will be on the dance floor!
