An event management company wrote, "A dark time for the Indian techno scene in Mumbai. After multiple cancellations and venue changes, the show finally happened at AntiSocial, only to be shut down early around 7:30–8 PM instead of 9:30. We call ourselves the land of Atithi Devo Bhava, yet this is how we treated an international artist. Feel terrible for the promoter who had to go through such a horrible situation. This is not what our scene should stand for (sic)."
An Instagram user questioned, "If they already obtained the permission to play until 9.30, I don't understand why Police intervened... (sic)." Check out the comments below...
