India-Pakistan Conflict: Shreya Ghoshal Postpones Concert
Ghoshal took to Instagram to announce the postponement of her May 10 concert in Mumbai.
Singer Shreya Ghoshal and musician Rishab Rikhiram Sharma are among those postponing concerts amid escalating tensions between India and Pakistan.
Ghoshal took to Instagram on Friday to announce the postponement of her May 10 concert in Mumbai.
In her Instagram post Ghoshal shared, "With a heavy heart, I want to share that my homecoming concert in Mumbai, part of the All Hearts Tour and scheduled for May 10, 2025 at Jio World Garden BKC will be postponed due to the current events unfolding in our beloved country."
"This concert means the world to me and I was looking forward to sharing a powerful evening with all of you. But, as an artist and an citizen, I feel a deep responsibility to stand in solidarity with the nation during this time," she further wrote.
"I promise that this is not cancellation, just a postponement. We will reunite soon, stronger and more united than ever," she further wrote.
The Indian armed forces conducted precision strikes, term as 'Operation Sindoor', on terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied-Kashmir in the wee hours of Wednesday. This was in retaliation to the he Pahalgam terror attack two weeks ago, which resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians.
On the intervening night of Wednesday and Thursday, Pakistan attempted to target military locations in India's frontier states with drones and missiles, which were intercepted by the Indian forces.
The tensions continued on Thursday night, as Pakistan attempted to use 300-400 Turkey-made drones against Indian military sites, Indian officials said in a briefing on Friday. All the drones were intercepted using "both kinetic and non-kinetic means".
