The Indian entertainment business is paused in the wake of one of the most horrific Pahalgam terror incidents in recent memory. At least 26 tourists were killed in broad daylight on April 22 in the tranquil Pahalgam valley of Jammu and Kashmir due to a vicious attack. Artists are making sure their sorrow is not limited to silent expressions as the nation reels from the tragedy's sheer shock. Many have chosen to cancel concerts and appearances rather than continue with their planned performances, sending a symbolic message that there can be no celebration when lives have been so brutally taken.
On April 26, Shreya Ghoshal was scheduled to perform at Pandit Dindayal Upadhyay Indoor Stadium in Surat. But as of right moment, the show is cancelled. The singer of Zaalima announced the news on her Instagram account. She said that the artists and organisers had decided to cancel the show as a whole because of the recent awful occurrences. "The organisers and the artist have decided to cancel the upcoming show that was scheduled to take place in Surat this Saturday, April 26th, due to the tragic and recent events," she wrote in her note. Full refunds will be given to all ticket holders, and the money will be automatically returned to the original payment method.
Music Industry Pays Tribute:
In light of the sad attack, rapper AP Dhillon stated yesterday that his scheduled album release would be postponed. He posted an emotional message on social media, saying, "I will be delaying today's release till further notice in remembrance of the Pahalgam disaster victims. My thoughts and prayers are with all those impacted. The artist's choice contributes to the entertainment industry's rising outpouring of support as both actors and musicians halt their work in remembrance of the deceased."
Following the heartbreaking news, singer Arijit Singh also cancelled his concert in Chennai. The musician posted a statement from the organisers on his Instagram stories, stating that the event was originally scheduled for April 27. "Given the tragic and recent events, the organisers and the artist have decided to cancel the upcoming show that was scheduled to take place in Chennai on Sunday, April 27th," the note stated.
Bollywood celebrities, in addition to artists, have offered comfort to individuals who have lost close ones. To show support for the victims' families, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, who is now promoting Costao, put a black band around his arm. He also responded to the attack in an interview with India Today, saying that everyone is really angry because the incident is still fresh in their memories.
