Zomaland Pune, a highly anticipated fusion of music and culinary delights, has left ticket-holders in a state of disbelief as the iconic Lucky Ali, initially slated to perform, was replaced by Prateek Kuhad. This sudden alteration has triggered a surge of refund requests, leaving festival-goers disheartened and dismayed.
Scores of Punekars had eagerly secured VIP tickets with high hopes of witnessing the legendary Lucky Ali grace the Zomaland Pune stage on November 4th and 5th. Jay Patel, a resident of Ahmedabad and a devoted Lucky Ali enthusiast, had purchased four VIP tickets for the event. However, upon learning about the artist switch, he is now actively searching for takers for his tickets, his excitement replaced by disappointment.
Amidst the dismay, Sandesh Mitkari voiced his dissatisfaction, stating, “I bought 2 VIP passes to watch & listen to Lucky Ali playing at #zomaland #Pune. Now I just checked that he isn’t playing tomorrow. I would like to get a 100% refund for the cancellation of those tickets. Can you please do the needful? I bought this for Lucky Ali only. This is ridiculous @zomato @zomatocare; you are selling the tickets on the name of Lucky Ali and then canceled.”
Another distressed ticket-holder tweeted, “I bought 4 VIP passes to watch & listen to Lucky Ali playing at #zomaland #Pune. Now that he isn’t playing tomorrow, I would like to get a 100% refund for the cancellation of those tickets @zomato @zomatocare. Can you please do the needful?”
Zomato officials issued a statement clarifying that Lucky Ali’s absence is due to personal reasons. However, in an effort to appease the situation, they revealed that Prateek Kuhad would be performing as a surprise replacement to ensure the continuation of the music festivities.
