Akanksha Kaushik
The Facebook profile of 20-year old Akanksha Kaushik read, Belieber at Justin Bieber; it sounds like a post by just another fangirl. But the BMM student from Sophia College stood out from the ocean of fans at Wednesday night's gig as she had also attended the Dubai leg of the superstar's tour on May 6.
BETTER THAN DUBAI? It was truly incredible. It was way better than the one in Dubai. He was very happy to see the Indian crowd sing every word of his songs. I was in the platinum zone which was very close to the stage, and to see him genuinely happy and jumping with the Indian crowd was the highlight of my evening. He also said he would love to come back to India and that he had met the best people on his visit. He was glad that the audience coordinated well with him.
ON THE DUBAI SHOW: The Dubai show was everything I had hoped for. There was a sufficient crowd; all Bieber fans like me, so there wasn't a lot of pushing around or commotion. It had a pretty chilled vibe. He seemed happy to be back in Dubai, and he was the happiest while playing 'Sorry'!
ON WHY THE SHOW IS GOOD FOR MUMBAI: This will have to be one of the biggest Pop culture moments for Mumbai as an international superstar like Bieber chose Mumbai to perform.
ON THE STEEP TICKET PRICES: I think all the hype around JB is valid; he is all over media, everyone is talking about him, people have travelled from all parts of India to see him perform, so it is only fair. His concert tickets have always been this costly, so I wasn't particularly surprised
