Neha Kakkar Faces Online Backlash Over Candy Shop
Singer Neha Kakkar’s latest music video Candy Shop has landed at the centre of a social media storm. Released on Monday, December 15, the song—featuring Neha alongside her brother Tony Kakkar—was meant to be a colourful, upbeat entertainer. Instead, it has triggered widespread criticism, with many users openly expressing disappointment over its lyrics, visuals, and overall concept.
Social Media Reacts Strongly
Soon after the track dropped, clips from the video began circulating across platforms, prompting a flood of reactions. A large section of users criticised the song’s lyrics, calling them “cheap” and “uncomfortable,” while the choreography was labelled by many as awkward and excessive. Several netizens also accused the singer of attempting to replicate K-pop aesthetics without fully understanding the genre’s nuance.
Harsh comments quickly surfaced online, with users mocking the styling, dance moves, and concept. Some posts suggested that the singer was “trying too hard to stay relevant,” while others claimed the performance felt forced rather than fun. – Neha Kakkar Faces Online Backlash Over Candy Shop

Styling and Visuals Under Fire
Neha’s brightly coloured outfits, exaggerated expressions, and candy-themed visuals became a major talking point. Viewers argued that while K-pop draws heavily on bold fashion and playful imagery, Candy Shop lacked the polish and precision typically associated with the style. Many felt the look leaned more toward shock value than creativity.
One widely shared opinion read that when artists struggle to reinvent themselves, they often rely on exaggerated hooks and provocative presentation instead of strong musical content.
Divided Opinions Continue
Despite the intense criticism, not all reactions have been negative. A segment of listeners defended Neha, praising her confidence and willingness to experiment with new styles. Supporters argued that pop music is meant to be fun and flamboyant, and experimentation should not always be judged harshly.
Candy Shop has been written and produced by Tony Kakkar, who has frequently collaborated with Neha on several past chartbusters. – Neha Kakkar Faces Online Backlash Over Candy Shop

As of now, Neha Kakkar has not issued any statement addressing the backlash. However, the song continues to trend online, fueled by both criticism and curiosity. Whether the controversy fades or sparks a response from the singer remains to be seen, but Candy Shop has undeniably kept Neha Kakkar in the spotlight—for reasons far more debated than anticipated.
