Despite the performers delivering great performances from their end, the concert suffered with chaotic situations from the beginning till the end. The entire Army Stadium area and the adjacent roads were jam-packed with concertgoers, and many fans could not even enter the venue despite being legitimate ticket holders. 

That happened because the gates had to be closed after 7 pm as the concert went on becoming massively overcrowded from the beginning, with more than 30 thousand music lovers.

Also, despite putting out restrictions and operating rigorous security checks on the entrance, the entire atmosphere of Army Stadium got poisonously polluted with the smokes of cigarettes and weeds, and the issue was even addressed by the organizers as they continuously requested the crowd not to smoke.
