The Assansole concert was a glittering affair making way to 60,000 people inside the venue and approximately 30,000 outside screaming to get in to see their favourite superstar Daler Mehndi perform.
The liquor Barron who was also the Organiser of the concert was overheard shouting, "Orribaba (Oh My God!) I have never seen such an ocean of human beings of all age groups belonging to a completely different culture and singing in Punjabi."
"I am overwhelmed at the love of people. Its magnitude is unfathomable. At one point during the performance, I was taken aback at the collective noise - that Roar - from the crowd - that I had to stop only to realize that was the crowd's exclamation was happiness at "Sajan Mere Satrangia". All this Love, affection and acceptance makes you grateful and humbles you", said Daler Mehndi.
The organiser had seen Daler Mehndi's concert in Durgapur and had vowed to get him to perform in Assansole. He managed it but fought against a lot of opposition from the local admin, since they did not want to be held responsible for any mishap
as a Daler Mehndi concert always involves huge crowds. Both the Police, the local admin are now grateful to the organizers for getting the King of Bhangra to Assansole.
