  • New Delhi, Renowned singer Hariharan says when tickets for music concerts sell for lakhs of rupees, it limits the options for the fans - a tough reality that needs to be addressed through a balanced approach by performers.

The article from Hindustan Times discusses the escalating ticket prices for concerts in India, highlighted by the recent example of a fan spending Rs 1.5 lakh for a ticket to see singer Hariharan perform. Hariharan himself commented on the situation, expressing concern over the affordability of concerts for the average fan. He emphasized the need for a balanced approach where both artists and event organizers consider the economic diversity of their audience. The article explores the broader implications of such high ticket prices, including the potential exclusion of middle and lower-income fans, and suggests that while premium pricing can cater to affluent fans, there should also be options for more reasonably priced tickets to ensure inclusivity. This situation underscores a growing trend in the entertainment industry where the cost of live performances is becoming prohibitive for many, prompting a call for industry stakeholders to rethink pricing strategies to maintain broad accessibility to cultural events.
