Music composer A.R. Rahman has shared a highlight reel of his controversial September 10 Chennai concert, which was slammed by fans for alleged mismanagement and harassment at the venue.

Rahman released the videos on his social media handle on Sunday with the caption “Chennai concert highlights”. The clip features Rahman and other musicians performing some iconic numbers on the stage amidst cheers from an enthusiastic audience.

However, what stirred the online community's attention was the fact that Rahman had disabled comments on both posts featuring the concert highlights. This action was met with a swift and intense online backlash, with many accusing the composer of being “tone-deaf".

The controversy surrounding the concert began when numerous attendees claimed to have experienced severe mismanagement and harassment during the event. As the uproar gained momentum, the concert's organisers came under scrutiny, leading to their eventual booking by the Chennai police.

Social media platforms were flooded with posts and testimonials from those who claimed to have faced harassment and faced difficulties, tarnishing what was supposed to be a memorable evening of music.
