U2 has arrived in India for their concert in Mumbai on Sunday at DY Patil Stadium. Many Bollywood celebrities are expected to turn up at the event and the night is going to be one helluva ride with Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. The band stepped out of the Mumbai airport on Thursday.
It was the show The World This Week on Doordarshan I used to record that entire show on Vhs and once .I saw their music video #Where the streets have no name and from that day I fell in love with them. Before that I did not know what U2 was. So I thank #prannoyroy for introducing these guys and today I was lucky to meet them in person at the airport and even clicked a picture with Bono ???????????? #viralbhayani @viralbhayani #u2
