Ed Sheeran stopped from performing

Ed Sheeran attempted to surprise his fans in Bengaluru by organising an unannounced street music performance on Church Street. However, the performance did not last long as he was stopped mid-way by the police, and a video of the incident went viral on social media. The clip divided the internet as some fans criticised the police while others supported their move.

A Reddit user, who shared the video, wrote: "A police officer pulled the plug when Ed Sheeran surprised everyone on Church Street".

In the video, the singer was seen performing his popular song Shape of You, dressed in a tshirt and pants with sunglasses, when the policeman stopped the performance by unplugging his microphone. “We have the permission to be here, but this policeman is shutting it down," the singer told the crowd.
