Disappointed but not surprised. Western artists don't have the stamina of our Bollywood stars who perform 5-hour concerts back to back! Still wishing her speedy recovery though.

As someone who works in the music industry, I appreciate her professionalism. Many Indian artists push through and damage their voices permanently. Kelly is setting a good example by prioritizing vocal health.

Vegas shows are so expensive! I hope the organizers give full refunds to Indian fans who might have traveled all the way. Ticket prices for these residencies are crazy compared to our desi concerts.

Kelly's voice is her instrument - can't blame her for protecting it! Reminds me of how Lata Mangeshkar ji used to take great care of her voice. True artists know when to pause. ❤️

While I respect her decision, the timing could have been better. Many fans would have already reached Vegas by the time she announced. At least our Indian artists usually cancel well in advance.
