Chaos at a local concert compelled Atif Aslam to leave the stage mid-way. Conflicting reports have emerged regarding what exactly went down.

According to local media reports, the crowd threw bottles at Atif, which prompted him to leave the stage immediately.

Some eyewitnesses report that a child was lost at the venue and the father wanted to make an announcement but the bouncers wouldn’t let him.

Once source, who wished to retain anonymity told local media: “It was all going so good. Atif came and while he was on stage, a fight started between some security guys and sound guys.” He added that no child was lost but the fight got messy and he saw three guys bleeding.

However, the source cleared that the crowd didn’t hurl bottles when Atif was on stage. In fact, the reason the crowd started throwing bottles was that they wanted Atif back on stage.

“His (Atif’s) performance was going with such a flow but then this happened”, stated the source.

Ali Zafar was set to perform later but the incident caused the show to be called off.

Waqar Zaka, who was hosting the concert, blamed the organizers for being unable to manage arrangements.
