The concert, held at the MMRDA Grounds in Bandra Kurla Complex (BKC) on Wednesday and Thursday evening, drew over 25,000 fans, with ticket prices starting at Rs 7,000. Amid the packed crowd, multiple concert-goers reported missing phones, prompting police to register seven FIRs in connection with the thefts.

According to officials from the BKC Police Station, the complainants include a makeup artist, hotelier, students, a journalist and businessmen, among others, as reported by PTI.
