In the first message the kid wrote, "Hi Vir, big fan from Vadodara. I’ve always wanted to attend one of your shows, and this ‘Wanted’ tour was the only hope I was holding onto. Unfortunately, I’m not earning yet, so despite begging my father, he had to deny my request because of financial reasons."

He also shared that he was about to leave for Canada for his higher studies, where he would begin earning and, eventually, be able to attend Das’s show. "This is the thread of hope I’ll hold onto for now! Good luck with the remaining ‘Wanted’ tour, Vir, always rooting for you!" the fan mentioned.
