The video footage of the concert shows the singer hitting the fan who had gone up on stage as he was performing. Amid the tale of his arrest and bail in the ‘slapgate’ incident, here are the other controversies Mika has been involved in, thanks to his famed temper and impulsive actions. 1.

The victim, Shrikant, an ophthalmologist posted at Ambedkar Hospital, had suffered some internal injury inside his left ear due to the assault. The Delhi Police had earlier registered a case of causing hurt and wrongful restraint against him, but he was given bail hours after his arrest.

2. When he kissed Rakhi Sawant Before slapping, Mika was in controversy’s eye for kissing. Back in 2006, Mika landed himself in trouble after kissing Bollywood item girl Rakhi Sawant. The incident saw Mika forcibly kiss Rakhi Sawant on her lips during his birthday bash. Rakhi was clearly not amused and filed a case of molestation against the singer. While Mika said that Rakh had kissed him first, prompting him to reply in kind, she said that he misbehaved with her.
