The Shiv Sena (UBT faction) has called for an investigation into the suspected "black marketing" of tickets to Coldplay's upcoming "Music of the Spheres" tour in Mumbai. On Friday, Spokesperson Anand Dubey wrote to Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, demanding him to investigate a possible connection involved in the selling of tickets at inflated prices, reported ANI. 

According to the ANI report, Dubey wrote in his letter that tickets to the show sold out within minutes of being on sale. However, despite the official ticketing partner, BookMyShow, reporting the concert sold out, tickets were still available through "unofficial channels" at significantly higher costs.
