For the unversed, a police officer took to the stage, pointed to Rahman, and ordered his group to discontinue the performance. While all this was happening, Sadda Haq from the film Rockstar was playing in the background. In the final moments of the clip, A R Rahman grinned and said, "Okay. I believe we have given and received too much love. Time is up. I enjoyed it. I want to thank the Pune city, the organisers, and the great band. We hope to see you soon."

AR Rahman posted the video and asked, "Did we all just experience the 'Rockstar' moment on stage yesterday? I believe we did. The audience's devotion overwhelmed us, and we continued wanting to give more. Pune, once again, I want to thank you for such a special evening. Here's a brief clip from our roller coaster experience ;)."

Many people responded to the video in the comments section by saying that the situation could have been handled in a better way. Reacting to the post, a social media user wrote: "The way you handled that situation 🙏 so much to learn from you, our most beloved RockstARR 🔥🔥" In another comment, the user added: 'Setting an example in every way 🙏🙏❤️'
