A fight breaks out in the crowd during Coldplay's Ahmedabad concert on Sunday,

Internet reacts

As the video of two men fighting each other in the crowd surfaced on social media, the internet could not help but process the irony with sense of humour. An Instagram user commented, “Viva la VIVAAD,” giving their spin to Coldplay performing its popular song Viva La Vida in the background. Another user wrote, “yellow (incorrect emoji) yeh lo (punch and correct emoji),” another reference to Coldplay's track Yellow.

“The fight will guide you home,” read a third comment, another reference to the line “Lights will guide you home” from Yellow. “Sky full of Scars (laughing with tears emoji),” stated a fourth one, alluding to another Coldplay track, A Sky Full Of Stars. “When uncle took fix you seriously,” said a user, another pun on Coldplay's song Fix You. “Yeh concert me Heavy Metal Scream koun kar raha hai?” (Who's doing Heavy Metal screams during the concert?)," commented a user, referring to a woman's loud screams during the fight.

“This is what happens when you overhype a concert and people who have zero interest enter concerts like these,” reasoned a user. “They may have the biggest concert, but atleast this didn't happen in Mumbai concert,” argued another. “They should be ashamed. Fighting in a concert like Coldplay where they only try to spread love,” expressed a third one. A fourth user narrated what happened: “I was literally besides them and that uncle had really lost it …he was screaming at 2 girls for using a cig and kept saying he’ll call the police and pushing them and a few guys stepped in to stop him and the old man ended up hitting the guy for no reason.”
