'No, Taylor, you better not': Taylor Swift's rumoured performance at Gautam Adani's son Jeet's pre-wedding event draws flak
Taylor Swift is reportedly coming to India, but her fans, known as Swifties, are not entirely too happy about it. If reports turn out to be true, this would mark Taylor's first India visit, and this was definitely not how the Indian fans of the global pop sensation envisioned her first India visit to be.
Taylor Swift is reportedly ready to make her way to India, but her Indian fans, also known as Swifties, aren't entirely thrilled about it. According to a recent report, Taylor will be performing at the pre-wedding celebrations of Jeet Adani, the son of businessman Gautam Adani, later this year. Indian Swifties have now taken to X to express their dissatisfaction with her rumoured India visit, stating that her first visit to country should be a public concert, not a private wedding performance.
Is Taylor Swift coming to India?
Taylor Swift is reportedly in talks to perform at the pre-wedding festivities of Jeet Adani and Diva Shah, which would mark her first-ever performance in India. The wedding, already expected to be a grand affair, is generating buzz for its opulence, and having Swift headline the pre-wedding celebrations would make it one of the most star-studded events of 2025, topping the Ambani wedding, which had Justin Bieber and Katy Perry's private concerts.
A source close to the matter told News18 Showsha that Taylor Swift's team is in discussions with the Adani family regarding a potential performance at one of the pre-wedding events for Jeet and Diva. While the Eras Tour star has not officially confirmed her attendance at this time, the tipster said that negotiations are currently underway.
Jeet Adani got engaged to his fianc¨¦e Diva Shah in an intimate ceremony held in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, back in March 2023. The couple is reported to tie the knot later this year.
Why Taylor Swift fans are not happy about her India visit
Indian fans of Taylor Swift, waiting for her to come to India for so long, aren't exactly happy with reports of her potential visit to the country. Many believe her first India visit should be a concert for fans, not just an exclusive performance for a select few.
Reacting to the recent reports of Taylor's potential India visit, one user wrote, "Streets saying Taylor's coming to India? No, Taylor, this isn't you. Your first concert in India can't be a pre-wedding event, please."

"Taylor Swift's first performance in India being at Adani's wedding was not on my bingo card or wishlist for that matter," another individual wrote.

A third Swiftie shared similar sentiments, writing, "TAYLOR SWIFT, YOU BETTER NOT. I'll be so mad if your first time performing in India is at a wedding. Like, be for real."

A fourth netizen, meanwhile, called it a mere marketing gimmick, adding, "Just read that Taylor Swift might be making her debut in India at Adani's wedding. Free wedding marketing is on its way."
