Thousands of fans attended Karan Aujla's concert at Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on February 28, but delays in entry and poor crowd management led to chaos. Viral social media videos show crowds breaking into ticket counters and stampede-like conditions.
Punjabi singer Karan Aujla held a grand concert at Delhi's Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on February 28, drawing thousands of fans. Most tickets had sold out, and Delhi Police issued a traffic advisory beforehand. However, mismanagement marred the entry process. Fans reported waiting hours, with no system to handle the crowd. Despite expensive tickets—such as 6,000 rupees—no wristbands were provided. One user posted, 'Pathetic event management by @district_india for Karan Aujla, Delhi concert. People literally stood for hours, hundreds involved in a stampede.. The bands were not issued.. Literally paid 6k for DOGSHIT.' Videos showed police stopping fans at the VIP gate, with attendees tagging event organizer 'District' in complaints.
During the show, Karan Aujla delivered a powerful performance, singing while hanging in the air and making a grand entrance. Cricketers Nitish Rana and Suyash Sharma attended and shared videos. Claims suggest 72,000 people were present, making it India's second-largest concert after Coldplay's Ahmedabad event with 1,34,000 attendees. Viral footage captured crowds breaking into ticket counters to grab passes, with organizers fleeing the scene.
