Coldplay’s Chris Martin Spotted at Gateway of India Ahead of Concert in Navi Mumbai
Chris Martin, the lead vocalist of Coldplay, made a noteworthy entrance in Mumbai as he headed to Navi Mumbai for a much-anticipated concert at DY Patil Stadium. The band’s presence in India has excited fans, who eagerly await their performances.
In a bid to avoid the notorious Mumbai traffic, Martin opted for a boat ride, showcasing a unique and refreshing approach to travel in the bustling city. Videos capturing his arrival at the Gateway of India circulated widely, highlighting his casual yet stylish outfit—a white Henley shirt paired with black pants, white sneakers, and a blue baseball cap. Martin greeted onlookers and photographers warmly, flashing a friendly smile and a traditional ‘namaste’ gesture before boarding the speed boat that took him across the waters to Navi Mumbai.
The Internet has been buzzing with clips from Martin’s recent visit to Mumbai. He and actress Dakota Johnson touched down in the city a few days prior, attracting attention at the airport where Martin continued to engage with fans and media alike. A particular moment that caught public interest was when the couple was seen navigating through dense city traffic on their way to their hotel.
Beyond the concert preparations, the couple immersed themselves in the local culture, visiting the renowned Shri Babulnath Temple. Martin donned a traditional pastel blue kurta and a Rudraksha mala, showcasing his respect for the local customs. Johnson complemented the occasion in a simple printed suit, with her head covered as a sign of reverence.
This concert series represents a significant milestone for Coldplay, marking their first performances in India since 2016. Fans are particularly excited about the band’s “Music of the Spheres World Tour,” which includes three shows at DY Patil Stadium from January 18 to 21, 2025, followed by performances at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium on January 25 and 26, 2025. The band’s return to India is not just a musical event but also a cultural exchange that resonates deeply with their diverse fanbase.
