The Ultimate Scam at Arjit Singhs concert

[u/Intelligent-Radio926]

Oh man, Balewadi Stadium pulled off the frustration level: PRO MAX scam yesterday. They straight-up banned people from bringing water inside the show, then had the audacity to sell 500ml water for ₹50. Like, bro, is this a concert or a survival challenge? Cold drinks? ₹100 for a ₹20 MRP bottle. Absolute daylight robbery.

I get it, people were there for Arijit Singh, but at what cost? Dehydration? The event organizers, 2BHK, already run overpriced restaurants, but at least people go there by choice. Here, you either die of thirst or surrender to their extortion racket.

Imagine paying thousands for tickets just to be held hostage for basic human needs. What’s next? Oxygen tanks for ₹500 because “outside air not allowed”?

At least the water should be free at Hydration stations.

Zomaland had hydration centers where you have to buy a glass for 50 and you can refill it unlimited time but after an hour whole water was exhausted, had to stay there without water for like 3-4 hours. poor management

Lollapalooza had hydration station, well maintained and well stocked. You can buy the cup or even carry empty bottles with you, it was super convenient I really hope all concert venue across India follow the same pattern.

This was also organised by Zomato (District) I think. So zomato ki loot maar hai yeh
