Exciting videos from Coldplay’s electrifying Mumbai concert are making waves on social media, offering a glimpse into the unforgettable experience for those who couldn’t be there. The globally renowned band has kicked off their highly anticipated Music of the Spheres World Tour with three spectacular shows at Navi Mumbai’s D.Y. Patil Stadium on January 18, 19, and 21, 2025.

Adding to the excitement, they will also perform at Ahmedabad’s iconic Narendra Modi Stadium on January 25 and 26, 2025. These performances mark Coldplay’s much-awaited return to India since their memorable set at the 2016 Global Citizen Festival, reigniting the excitement of fans across the country.

Ahead of the highly anticipated concert on Saturday, Chris Martin was spotted at Mumbai’s iconic Gateway of India. Opting to avoid the notorious traffic, he made his way to Navi Mumbai via a speedboat.

Looking cheerful, Chris greeted the paparazzi with a friendly 'namaste' as he prepared for his performance. His serene boat ride to the concert venue certainly added a touch of calm before the electric atmosphere of the show.

Chris Martin arrived in Mumbai on Thursday with his girlfriend, Dakota Johnson. On Friday, photos of their visit to the Shri Babulnath Temple went viral.

Prior to the concert, Dakota was seen by the paparazzi at Mumbai’s Siddhivinayak Temple, where she was accompanied by Bollywood actresses Sonali Bendre and Gayatri Oberoi. The trio seemed to enjoy their visit, adding a spiritual touch to their Mumbai trip.
