Anirudh Ravichander Reschedules Grand Finale of Hukum Chennai Concert to August 23 at New Venue
Chennai, July 28: In a major update for fans, one of India’s top music directors, Anirudh Ravichander, has officially announced a new date and venue for the much-anticipated Hukum Chennai Concert, originally scheduled for July 26. The concert, which is part of his Hukum World Tour 2024, will now be held on August 23 at Marg Swarnabhoomi in Kuvathur (ECR), Chennai.
Taking to his X (formerly Twitter) timeline on Monday, Anirudh wrote,
“Bigger. Wilder. Crazier. The grand finale of the #HukumTour on 23rd August in Namma Chennai. #ArangamAthiratume.”
He also informed fans that early ticket access will be available for previous buyers from August 3, 6 PM to August 4, 2 PM, and general ticket sales will begin on August 4 at 3 PM.
Reason Behind the Postponement
On July 20, Anirudh and his team had postponed the concert citing "overwhelming demand for tickets" and venue limitations at Thiruvidanthai. The organisers stated that the original venue was unable to accommodate the high number of fans wanting to attend the event.
In a statement released then, Anirudh said,
“Dear Hukum Family, Due to the incredible love and overwhelming demand, the Hukum Chennai concert scheduled for July 26 at Thiruvidanthai is being postponed. Thank you so much for your love and patience. We’ll be back soon – bigger, better, and louder!”
The accompanying poster reiterated the challenges faced:
“Due to overwhelming ticket demand and limitations in accommodating more audience at the current venue, the Hukum Chennai concert scheduled for 26th July at Thiruvidanthai is being postponed.”
New Venue Promises Enhanced Experience
The organisers have now selected Marg Swarnabhoomi in Kuvathur (ECR) as the new venue, promising fans a “seamless, high-quality experience” with enhanced production, better crowd management, and smooth entry and exit facilities.
Ticket holders from the previously scheduled concert were also informed that they would receive full refunds to their original payment method through District by Zomato within 7–10 working days.
A Grand Finale to a Global Tour
The Chennai concert marks the grand finale of Anirudh’s Hukum World Tour 2024, which kicked off with a sold-out show at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai in February last year. Since then, the chart-topping composer has performed in multiple cities across the globe, receiving thunderous applause from fans worldwide.
The Chennai leg is expected to be a massive musical spectacle, bringing the tour to a spectacular close with a full-scale production and live renditions of Anirudh’s biggest hits.
Fans Gear Up for August 23
With the announcement of the new date and venue, fans have once again reignited their excitement for the show. Social media is buzzing with anticipation, and early access ticket buyers are preparing for the window that opens on August 3.
Organisers have assured fans that all efforts are being made to make the August 23 concert a truly unforgettable experience for Anirudh’s fans in Chennai and beyond.
