Hours after the BookMyShow site/app crashed because of the upcoming Coldplay concert in India, director Vivek Agniotri took to X and shared his thoughts on the same. He shared a screenshot of the massive waiting line on the site.
Following the release of the iPhone 16, which sent people into a frenzy of hurried phone purchases, a Coldplay concert has now caused people to go completely insane. Just before the much-anticipated Coldplay performance in Mumbai on September 22 tickets went on sale, the BookMyShow website collapsed, sending social media users into a state of panic. Amidst this, director Vivek Agnihotri reacted on X (formerly Twitter) to the fact that the stadium can only hold 50,000 people, but 8 lakh people are waiting in line for tickets on BMS (BookMyShow).
