Attendees took to social media to complain about poor event management, including obstructed views caused by trees, faulty sound systems, and a chaotic layout, with several calling it a “waste of money.” Despite the backlash, Akon had earlier expressed his love for India
Akon concert
Several Akon fans were delighted to see the singer-rapper perform at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium (JLN) on Lodhi Road in South Delhi on November 9 from 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Unfortunately, many people were disappointed with their experience. The day following the concert, many concertgoers resorted to social media to express their disappointment with the event layout and restricted views.
Netizens express rage
A user who attended the concert took to X and stated, "Hi district India Akon! I booked silver tickets to Akon's show in Delhi today, and you can't have trees and a sound system obscuring my view? I've eaten at the same place before, and it was definitely a better experience."
Another said, "Dogs**t set up for the Akon concert by district_india." What the f*** is this setup? I paid over Rs 3000 and can't see the stage because there's no good spot for me to stand. What a huge waste of my money. I spent the entire evening looking at a f***ing screen."
A second attendee stated, "Just wanted to offer a thanks to district_india for organising an awful Akon show! Thank you for spoiling the experience for the Millennials out there!"
Akon's love for India
Before his gigs in India, Akon remarked in a press release, "India has always shown me so much affection -- it's like a second home. The atmosphere, culture, and fans are all on another level. I'm absolutely thrilled to be back and performing live for you. This tour will be something extraordinary; let us make history together!"
After Delhi, Akon will play in Bengaluru (November 14) and Mumbai (November 16). "Bringing Akon back to India is a celebration. This is the night supporters have been hoping for. "We promise an extravagant experience that will be remembered for years," said Aman Kumar, White Fox's co-founder.
Akon was spotted last night at Delhi Airport with his wife Tomeka Thiam. Amid their divorce rumours, the couple were all smiles as they posed for the paps. The duo have a 17-year-old daughter as well, her name is Journey.
