Viral footage from the event shows the singer giving her act when an unidentified guy leapt onto the stage and seized her unexpectedly. Kanika, startled but calm, took an instinctual step back, plainly scared but still singing as she sought to understand the situation.
Within seconds, her security crew had overpowered the interloper and dragged him off the platform. There have been no verifiable reports of any legal action taken in the incident. However, the tragedy has caused significant indignation online, with fans demanding better safety standards for musicians who play at major public events.

The terrible incident occurred shortly after Kanika made news for disclosing the harsh reality of singers' wages in Bollywood. In an interview with Uorfi Javed, Kapoor stated that playback singers are terribly underpaid, revealing that she has received as low as Rs 101 for projects in the past.
She said that even some of India's finest performers do not receive adequate remuneration, royalties, or publication rights for their most popular tunes.

“Singers don’t really get paid. I can show you all the contracts, we get Rs 101,” she said, adding that the system treats singers as though the industry is doing them a favour. Kapoor argued that in India, a singer’s livelihood relies almost entirely on live shows. “As long as your voice works and you can perform, you’ll earn. If something happens tomorrow, there is no pension plan for singers,” she said, emphasising the artists' lack of long-term security.
