Arijit Singh’s Patna Concert Postponed Due to VVIP Movement; New Date Awaited

Patna: The highly anticipated concert featuring renowned Bollywood singer Arijit Singh, scheduled to take place in Patna on December 10, has been postponed. The organizers cited VVIP movement in the city on the same day as the reason for rescheduling, with the new date expected to be announced soon.

The decision comes in light of the 26th meeting of the Eastern Zonal Council (EZC), focusing on the development of eastern states, including Bihar, set to occur on December 10 in Patna. Notable attendees at the Eastern Regional Council meeting will include Chief Ministers of Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, and Odisha. Union Home Minister Amit Shah will preside over the meeting.

The rearrangement of the concert date is accompanied by adjustments to the city’s traffic system due to the anticipated impact of the EZC meeting. The organizers prioritized the safety and security of the audience, considering the potential for significant traffic disruptions and large crowds.

For patrons who have already purchased tickets, reassurance comes in the form of validity for the rescheduled concert. The decision to maintain ticket validity aims to accommodate those eager to experience Arijit Singh’s enchanting melodies.

Originally slated to perform at Gandhi Maidan, Arijit Singh’s repertoire was set to include popular songs such as ‘Kabira’, ‘Muskurane’, ‘Gerua’, ‘Channa Mereya’, ‘Samjhawan’, ‘Kesariya’, and ‘Heeriye’. Adding a local flavor, Singh had planned to incorporate Bihari elements into his performance.

One of the unique features of the concert was Arijit Singh’s plan to sing atop a ramp elevated 260 feet above the stage. This innovative setup aimed to ensure that even audience members situated farther from the stage could establish a profound connection with the artist.

As fans await the announcement of the new concert date, there is optimism that the rescheduled event will provide a memorable start to the New Year for the people of Patna, with Arijit Singh’s magical voice echoing through the city.
