Last night (09), a crowd surge occurred in the Jaffna area during the concert featuring the veteran Indian playback singer and film score composer Hariharan at the ‘Mutraveli’ Stadium. The event, attended by a sizable crowd of fans, saw an enthusiastic response from the audience.
However, the large number of attendees attempted to forcefully enter the venue, disregarding the security measures in place, as reported by an Ada Derana correspondent. The situation resulted in several individuals sustaining injuries due to the crowd crush. Swift action by the police ultimately managed to bring the situation under control.
The concert featured the participation of prominent South Indian actresses and actors, including Tamannaah and Ramba, adding to the excitement of the event. Despite the initial crowd-related challenges, the overall atmosphere remained spirited as music enthusiasts gathered to enjoy the performance by Hariharan and the accompanying star-studded lineup.
