There’s still time before Coldplay comes back to India, but there are some ‘strings’ connecting them with the country. A guitar signed by the entire British band will be up for sale at a charity auction, The Idea of India, which will be hosted by actor Rahul Bose in Mumbai on February 19.

According to a statement, the international band comprising Chris Martin, Jonny Buckland, Guy Berryman and Will Champion, signed and donated a very special guitar for the charity auction.

The signed guitar is the only international piece of memorabilia that will be auctioned along with 11 other pieces donated by some major and noteworthy Indian heroes and legends.

From surprising Delhiites with an impromptu gig to meeting PM Modi and Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal to capturing different hues of India in a song Hymn for The Weekend, the band seems to be adding more pages to its India travelogue.
