An unfortunate incident took place at the Gazipur Shimultoli Small & Cottage Industries Fair, where a clash between visitors left the venue in shambles. At the centre of controversy was a video, supposedly featuring singer Oyshee Fatema Tuz Zahara, seen toppling a wall to "escape". The video has been circulated widely, even on nationally renowned news portals and pages.
Speaking to The Daily Star, the singer confirmed that the girl in the video was not her. "I am astounded by how news portals could run the video without even verifying," said the singer. "Our performance at the venue went very smoothly, and everyone enjoyed it. I do not know how the clashes at the venue started. To be honest, it was one of the best performances of my life."
The singer expressed disappointment and discomfort at how the media is portraying the incident. "Some people are trying to politicise the incident, and it is very awkward that I am somehow in the midst of it. I kindly request my friends in the media to verify information before publication to avoid spreading confusion among the public," she said.
