Gatecrashers Galore –
The tickets at the concert ranged from Rs 4,060 to Rs 76,790, the VIP section was divided into three categories – VVIP 3: Rs 36,505; VVIP 2: Rs 58,030; VVIP 1: Rs 76,790. Interestingly, the division was only on paper and not on the ground. The management seemed to have failed in maintaining the areas according to the ticket grade.
A disappointed attendee said, “I paid Rs.36,000 to be in this arena. But look at these bunch of guys, they don’t belong here. Their wristbands suggest that they are from the arena that had cheaper tickets. What’s the use of spending so much money when people can gatecrash? Even I should have bought a cheaper ticket and stood at an expensive costing arena instead!” A person who had travelled all the way from Rajasthan took pride in swindling the management and he said laughingly, “It was so much fun! I bought a ticket worth Rs4,000 but stood at the section that cost Rs10,000 per ticket!”
An eye-witness told us that actress Bipasha Basu was rather unhappy about the place being overcrowded. She was accompanied by hubby Karan Singh Grover when she entered the arena. But one look at the place, bustling with so many people, she took a u-turn in a couple of minutes and chose to give the concert a miss.
