Amid all the hype around Coldplay’s recent concerts in India for their grandeur and record-breaking attendance, the indie-pop band Cigarettes After Sex had a far less fortunate experience.

Taking to Instagram, the group expressed their regret and apologised to their fans for the last-minute cancellation.

Fans react
The abrupt cancellation left many fans frustrated, leading them to express their disappointment in the comments section. Several compared the incident to Coldplay’s flawless execution in Ahmedabad. One fan wrote, “Sad… next time shift your venue to the place which manages well like in Ahmedabad.” Another remarked, “Sorry to say Ahmedabad is better.” A particularly upset fan commented, “This is seriously so negligible on your part as well as the ‘local production.’ Y’all never think of the fans who are standing and waiting and buying your tickets much in advance just to see a glimpse of you.”
Meanwhile, Coldplay concluded their India Tour on January 26 in Ahmedabad with their biggest concert ever. Their final show in Ahmedabad on Sunday night drew a staggering crowd of 1,34,000 fans.
