While Karan Aujla thrilled fans in Delhi during his P-Pop Culture World Tour, his recent show in Mumbai sparked strong reactions online, with many fans expressing their “disappointment” over the event`s arrangements.
The singer kicked off the India leg with a show in Delhi on 28 February at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium. Aujla captivated the crowd with some of his most popular songs, including Softly, Tauba Tauba, Gangsta, Boyfriend, and 52 Bars.
Fans express disappointment at Karan Aujla`s Mumbai concert
Karan performed in Mumbai at a Holi-themed daytime concert on March 3. A large number of fans gathered to celebrate Holi and enjoy the music.
However, after the show, many fans shared videos online, saying they were left “disappointed” and criticised the singer for poor crowd management.
While some fans alleged that sprinklers were only available in the Fan Zone and not in the VIP or General areas, others claimed there were long queues to buy water. A few also said that some fans fainted due to the heat and the crowd.
In a viral video, a fan complained about spending Rs 6,000 on a ticket just to faint thrice due to the scorching sun and having to drink ORS to recover.
In another video, a fan criticised the organisers, claiming she could not even catch a single glimpse of Karan Aujla because there were no large screens, and the stage was too far away, even for those in the VIP section.
Karan Aujla reacts to the backlash
Although Karan has not addressed the complaints directly, he seemed to respond after his Pune concert later that day. On Instagram, he wrote, “Bombay, I think we need to add a night concert. Team Innovation, y`all coming back stronger or what???”
However, the singer has not yet announced dates for a second Mumbai concert, though the hint has already generated excitement among fans.
After Mumbai and Pune, Karan is set to perform in Chandigarh on 14 March, Indore on 21 March, and Bengaluru on 29 March. The tour will also visit Ahmedabad, Kolkata, Jaipur, and Lucknow before ending in Ludhiana on 12 April.
