New Delhi: During the live concert of renowned boyband Mirror on Thursday, a giant hanging video screen came crashing on the stage and fell right over two dancers.
A wave of horror passed through those present in the Hong Kong Coliseum as the LED screen broke free from the metal wires with which it was attached at a height above the stage.
