A section of viewers also accused Neha of trying too hard to imitate K-pop styling and concepts, without capturing the finesse that defines the genre.
One user wrote, “When you start getting irrelevant, you resort to forced hooks, cringe lyrics, and shock-value performances.” Another comment read, “The styling and vibe feel like a poor attempt at K-pop aesthetics -cute and bold on paper, but executed embarrassingly and vulgar.”
Similar reactions have flooded comment sections, with many questioning the creative direction of the song.
The lyrics of Candy Shop is penned by Neha's brother Tony Kakkar. He has also produced the song.
