AR Rehman drew a lot of criticism for his concert last night as attendees reported poor management which almost caused a stampede.<\/p>\n

The Oscar-winning music composer hosted a gig in Chennai, India where the crowd complained about overcrowding, extortion, and bad quality speakers. According to Pink Villa, a few got injured as well and women were harassed while some children went missing.<\/p>\n

A netizen on X (formerly known as Twitter) shared a distressing video from the concert where people can be seen making their way out from the crowd as “she had to return back without even entering.”<\/p>\n

In replies, Indians bashed the management for overselling tickets – the gold one for 2000 rupees which did not have good view either.<\/p>\n

“Can’t hear the performance, can’t see the screen and can’t even see the seats I paid for. Pathetic coordination from parking, seating, information, crowd control and more,” wrote another user.<\/p>\n

India Today reported ACTC Events apologised on X to those who couldn’t attend due to overcrowding, “Our sincere apologies. We take full responsibility and accountability. We are with you.”<\/p>\n

AR Rahman has also asked people, “who purchased the tickets and were not able to enter due to unfortunate circumstances”, to share a copy of the stub with the designated portal for the concert, ensuring they will be reimbursed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
