The incident sparked a debate on social media about the enforcement of COVID-19 protocols and the role of police in such situations.
Rehman clarified things through a video that nothing had happened it was just that they went overtime. He shared a video in which he can be seen saying “Okay. I think we overpoured love and we are overboard the time. That’s it, we are done. Timing is over. I like this. Thank you city of Pune, the organisers, and the amazing band.”
