On Monday, Neha took to Instagram Stories to announce that she is taking a break from “responsibilities, relationships, and work”
“Time to take a break from responsibilities, relationships, work and everything I can think of right now. Not sure if I’ll be back or not. Thank you,” Neha mentioned in one post.
She posted once again to request paparazzi not to film her, writing, “I request paparazzi and fans not to film me at all. I hope you respect my privacy and let me live freely in this world. No cameras plz! I request! This is the least you all can give me for my peace.”
However, the Stories were deleted from her handle shortly. This came a few months after Neha along with her brother Tony Kakkar were heavily criticised over their single, Candy Shop. Social media users have taken to different platforms to slam the song, calling out its “cheap” and “vulgar” dance moves while accusing the duo of unsuccessfully trying to copy K-pop artists.
