Are you an AR Rahman fan? Have you been to his concerts before? If yes, you must be aware that the major chunk of his songs is in Tamil and not Hindi, right?
Never assume that majority of them will be in Hindi; every big fan of his has this hint because “Tamil” is in his blood. However, there are some fans, who are unaware of this fact, due to which they use social media platforms and crib about how their money got wasted.
Yes, a similar thing happened with the 8th July concert of AR Rahman in Wembley (UK). As usual, Tamil songs dominated the concert and some fans didn’t like it.
Was this justified? AR Rahman is majorly known for Tamil work and has also got the title “Mozart of Madras”; how can we expect him not to sing Tamil songs and concentrate only on Hindi songs, just because we like it?
Audience literally walked out of the concert and left furious tweets on Twitter.
Have a look at some…
Felt out of place!

Now, the Hindi speaking audience is claiming a refund because they said they were cheated by false advertising. One thing to note is that the concert’s title was “Netru, Indru, Nalai”. So wasn’t it understandable that it’s in Tamil?
