Shape of You singer Ed Sheeran has arrived in Mumbai for his concert at JioGarden on Sunday, 19 November. The gig is expected to accommodate 10,000 fans with Sheeran performing with his guitar and little else in terms of grand stage effects.
Sheeran’s arrival in Mumbai was also very hush hush with paparazzi almost missing the ginger-haired musician when he landed today (Friday).
All About the Gig
Sheeran will not lip-sync on stage so fans in Mumbai will not be disappointed as they were when pop singer Justin Bieber dropped in for a little bit for his gig! And unlike Bieber, his “demands” aren’t extravagant either. He just expects Nando's Hot Peri-Peri Sauce and dry fruits in his dressing room. Pop artist, Lauv will also be performing before Sheeran takes the stage.
According to a report in FirstPost, he’ll have a “green room done up with automobile and animal graffiti, and a mini bar well stocked with his favourite drinks like Robinson’s fruit squash, beer, milk and fizzy drinks aplenty in addition to Manuka honey and fresh fruits”.
And, get this! Nita and Mukesh Ambani will be hosting Sheeran at their Mumbai home, Antilla with Indian food on the menu to get the real taste of India. (Hopefully, it won’t be too spicy!)
