The November 15 event has been making headlines after multiple threatening emails referring to the concert were received by different establishments. Earlier in November, three private schools and the Indore Mayor's office reportedly received bomb threats linked to the singer's performance.

The security scare escalated further after an email threatening a bomb attack at the concert venue was reportedly sent to the Gwalior bench of the Madhya Pradesh High Court and a judge. The message, issued in the name of the 'Khalistani National Army', allegedly threatened to blow up the stage during the performance. It also warned parents against sending their children to the event.
