During a memorable concert in Navi Mumbai on January 18, 2025, Coldplay’s frontman Chris Martin surprised fans by giving a shoutout to Indian pace bowler JaspritBumrah. While performing “A Sky Full of Stars,” Martin humorously announced that they needed to wrap up the show quickly because Bumrah wanted to come backstage and bowl at him. The crowd erupted with excitement at the mention of Bumrah, anticipating a possible surprise appearance, although that did not materialize.

The concert was part of Coldplay’s “Music of the Spheres World Tour,” and it drew thousands of fans to the DY Patil Stadium. Martin captivated the audience not only with his music but also by speaking in Hindi, enhancing the connection with his fans. His mention of Bumrah added an extra layer of excitement to an already electrifying atmosphere.

While Bumrah did not attend the concert, he has been named in India’s squad for the upcoming ICC Champions Trophy. The fast bowler, who took 32 wickets during the recent Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Australia, is expected to lead India's bowling attack in the tournament. The Coldplay concert was a highlight for fans and showcased Martin’s ability to engage with local culture.
