Additionally, there were distressing accounts of ticket holders being denied entry at the venue, some even resorting to tearing their tickets in sheer frustration.

One film trade analyst shared a fan's video, accompanied by the caption, "A disappointed #ARRahman fan tore their #MarakkumaNenjam concert tickets, asserting that this event was truly unforgettable but in the worst way possible, and it felt like a regrettable gift from A R Rahman to his fans." Another disheartened fan shared a video from the concert, expressing their dissatisfaction with the event's organization, deeming it a waste of money and energy.

Another wrote, “Paid 15k for this shit view. Almost died in the stampede. People were overflowing from every f****ng corner. No chairs for anyone. No audio for anyone. Well orchestrated shitshow @arRahman. Never ever attending your concert. Ever.” Many shared videos of asking AR Rahman fans to not come to the concert in case they were on the way.

A fan shared a few videos of people complaining about the arrangement and wrote, “It was worst concert ever in the History #ARRahman #Scam2023 by #ACTC. Respect Humanity. 30 Years of the Fan in me died today Mr. #ARRahman. #MarakkumaNenjam Marakkavey Mudiyathu (can't forget). A performer in the stage can’t never see what’s happening at other areas just watch it.”

The situation wasn't any different for those who got some of the best seats. Sharing his experience, a person tweeted, “I am Devastated. AR Rahman is literally the only artist I look up to. He's everything to me. I love him with all my heart. BUT, I got trampled and had a full blown anxiety attack and a breakdown even though I bought Gold tickets. I cannot begin to imagine what others went through.”
