Punjabi rapper Raftaar is thankful to God and his fans for all the love that he is showered with, even after some fans at his recent Gurgaon concert left him badly bruised in an attempt to get clicked with the music sensation.

For the uninitiated, Raftaar — who has delivered hit tracks such as Singh And Kaur, Tamanche Pe Disco, Dhup Chik and Madam Ji — was performing in Gurgaon on Thursday for a crowd of more than 6,000 when fans got out of control and broke barricades to get selfies clicked with him.
