The legendary rock band Guns N' Roses has returned to India after 12 years, and will be performing in Mumbai tomorrow, on 17 th May, 2025, as part of their Asia tour. They are all set to mesmerize their fans with their concert at Mahalaxmi Race Course, and have arrived in the city already. Ahead of the concert, a Guns N' Roses fan's dream came true when he bumped into the band's lead guitarist Slash in Mumbai. The fan, who had travelled especially for the concert from Assam, shared what it was like to meet Slash in person.
The 29-year-old fan, Zeet Bora, arrived from Assam to Mumbai on the morning of May 15, two days before the concert. He headed to Leopold Cafe in Mumbai for lunch, and much to his surprise, Slash was sitting at the table next to him! While speaking with Mid-Day, the fan said, 'We actually landed in Mumbai this morning just for this concert. It was so random—I was having lunch with my friend at a café when Slash and his band members walked in. They sat at the table next to ours." Zeet, who was accompanied by his friend, did not want to disturb Slash as he was having a private time.
'So, we waited till he got done and was about to leave. That's when we approached him for a picture and had a chat," he said. He further shared that the guitarist was very friendly. 'We waited for an hour to take a photo with him. He was so friendly, and I told him it felt like a dream to meet him in person." Zeet also shared the picture on Instagram and wrote, 'Bumped into the legend @slash!" Check it out below!
