The note had further said, "To welcome all fans and deliver a seamless, high-quality experience - including smooth entry and exit and enhanced production - we are shifting to a different venue on a new date, which will be announced soon. All ticket holders will receive a refund to their original payment method from District by Zomato within 7-10 working days."
Stating that they sincerely regretted the inconvenience, the organisers of the concert had thanked audiences for their incredible support and had said, "We'll be back bigger, better, and louder."
For the unaware, Anirudh announced that he would be performing in concerts in various cities across the world as part of his Hukum World Tour in 2024.
