Oscar-winning music maestro AR Rahman held a concert in Chennai on September 10, and while fans thronged the venue to witness the performance of a lifetime, they were left with a rather bitter experience. The huge crowd at the venue led to a stampede-like situation and people shared their horrifying experiences on social media.

Several people who were present at the concert shared on social media that women were groped and molested and children were separated from their guardians due to the crowd.

Some could not enter the venue despite having bought expensive tickets. And amid the row, a new video has surfaced online, in which a woman can be heard claiming that the entire incident was orchestrated and music composer Vijay Antony had a hand in it.

Vijay Antony issues statement

Antony was slammed by netizens after the video went viral, and the composer has now decided to end his silence.

Antony took to his Twitter handle to share an official note against the video, and also threatened to take legal action against those spreading lies about him.

“With sadness in my heart, I am writing this letter to put a full stop to the ongoing controversy. A sister in her YouTube channel has been spreading lies about me and my brother AR Rahman. They are absolute lies. I am going to file a defamation case against them,” he wrote in the note.

Organisers take responsibility

The day after the concert, the organisers issued an unconditional apology to the fans for the inconvenience and chaos at the venue, and they also promised to return to ticket amount to those who could not enter the venue due to overcrowding.

If reports are to be believed, nearly 50,000 people were present at the venue for the concert, but the organisers had obtained the permission for a crowd of only 20,000.

The organisers took responsibility for the mess, and they also pleaded netizens to not attack Rahman as he had nothing to do with the chaos.

Singham Again Trailer: Ajay Devgn & Deepika Padukone Team Up To Save Kareena Kapoor In Ramayan-Inspired Action-Entertainer

The intriguing and action-packed trailer of Rohit Shetty’s Singham Again was unveiled by the makers on Monday and fans have already declared it a blockbuster. The five-minute-long trailer, the longest in history of Indian films, promises drama, action, emotions, humour and everything expected from a Rohit Shetty film.

The trailer showcases powerful dialogues that highlights the film’s epic narrative inspired by the Ramayan. Ajay Devgn’s character, Bajirao Singham, channels Lord Ram as he leaves no stone unturned to save his wife Avni (Kareena Kapoor) from the villain, played by Arjun Kapoor.

The trailer shows him drawing a striking comparison to his own mission, stating that just as Lord Ram journeyed 3,000 kilometers to rescue Sita, he too is prepared to confront any challenges to protect Avni.

It features other elements from the Ramayan, with Tiger Shroff depicted as Lakshman and Ranveer Singh embodying the loyal Lord Hanuman. Additionally, towards the end of the trailer, viewers catch a glimpse of Akshay Kumar, whose character appears to be inspired by Jataayu.

Deepika Padukone definitely steals the spotlight with her rowdy accent, portraying Lady Singham aka Shakti Shetty. Meanwhile, Arjun Kapoor takes on a menacing role that echoes the character of Raavan. He is described as ‘aag ka toofan’.

Rohit has successfully managed to blend the Ramayan narrative with fire, epic stunts and, of course, flying cars.

The film also stars Jackie Shroff, Shweta Tiwari and Dayanand Shetty in pivotal roles.

Singham Again is a part of the popular Singham franchise and it looks like it is indeed the biggest film of Rohit Shetty’s cop universe.

The film is all set to hit the big screens on Diwali 2024 (November 1) and it will clash with Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan and Triptii Dimri’s Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3.

While the film is headlined by Ajay Devgn as the OG Singham, Ranveer Singh reprises his role of Simmba and Akshay Kumar as the cop, Sooryavanshi.
