In a post on Instagram, social media influencer Saumya Sahni said, “I may regret saying this later but I absolutely have to Indian artist ka koi haq nahi banta ki from 20-25 hrs rupaye ek concert ke charge kare jab play with six cities playing kar rahe hai bohut hi limited means of entertainment hai. Bohot hi kam artists hai joh iss desh ke liye, unki taal mein perform kar pate hain. Aur uske baad ek insaan ka koi access nahi hai us artiste tak. They could perform three sets. The core audience often has no means, no work and limited entertainment options. There are very few artists who can perform in their own language for this country. After that, a middle class person no longer has access to these artists.)
