Anirudh Ravichander's Chennai Concert Postponed Due To 'Overwhelming Ticket Demand'

Last Updated: Anirudh Ravichander postponed his July 26 Chennai concert due to overwhelming ticket demand. He promised a bigger venue and better experience. Anirudh Ravichander has pushed back his upcoming Chennai concert, citing overwhelming ticket demand. The 34-year-old singer-composer was slated to perform at Thiruvidanthai on July 26. He issued an official statement, promising fans a 'bigger and better" venue that can accommodate more fans. Taking to social media, Anirudh Ravichander explained why he and his team decided to postpone the event just a week before. His statement read: '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." He continued, 'To welcome all fans and deliver a seamless, high-quality experience – including smooth entry and exit and enhanced production – we are shifting to a different venue on a new date, which will be announced soon." He also shared that the refunds will be made in 7-10 working days. 'We sincerely regret the inconvenience and thank you for your incredible support. We'll be back bigger, better, and louder!," the note concluded. '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!", he wrote on the platform. Take a look: Recently, it was speculated that Anirudh is all set to marry IPL team Sunrisers Hyderabad co-owner Kavya Maran. A post on Reddit also alleged that the duo have been dating for over a year. The post read: 'It is being speculated that music composer Anirudh Ravichander and Kavya Maran – daughter of Sun TV's Kalanithi Maran and owner of the Sunrisers Hyderabad IPL team – are in a relationship. Reports suggest that superstar Rajinikanth has personally spoken to Kalanithi Maran about their relationship, leading to expectations that the couple may tie the knot soon." Soon after, the Jawan music composer quashed the wedding rumours. He wrote on X, 'Marriage ah? lol .. Chill out guys. Please stop spreading rumours (sic)." However, he did not write anything about whether he is in a relationship. On the work front, Anirudh Ravichander has composed music for an impressive film list including Superstar Rajinikanth's Coolie, Thalapathy Vijay's Jana Nayagan, Vijay Deverakonda's Kingdom, AR Murugadoss' Madharasi, Vignesh Shivan's Love Insurance Kompany, and Nani's Paradise.

Kavya Maran reacts to her viral IPL memes: ‘If you had a camera on everyone at work…'

She's the CEO of Sunrisers Hyderabad and one of the most meme'd faces in Indian cricket. But for Kavya Kalanithi Maran, the emotional reactions that flood social media every IPL season come from a very real place. In a recent interview, Maran addressed how her deeply personal investment in her franchise—and the game itself—makes her expressions impossible to fake. Now managing teams across three continents, she spoke candidly about balancing business, fandom, and an ever-watchful camera. Viral reactions and the meme queen label Kavya Maran has become a permanent fixture in IPL broadcasts, not for commentary or soundbites, but for her candid reactions. From clenched jaws during losses to euphoric cheers in key victories, her emotional visibility has turned her into an internet meme staple. According to Maran, this fame wasn't by design. 'Those are my raw emotions that you're seeing,' she told Fortune India. 'When I go to Ahmedabad or Chennai, and I'm sitting many feet away, somewhere in the box, the cameraman manages to find me.' She understands the humor behind the memes as well, stating that she was 'sure if you had a camera on everybody sitting in the office, dealing with their projects, and stocks going up and down, you'd get the same emotions.' A businesswoman behind the screens Kavya's expressions may light up meme pages, but her responsibilities span global cricket. Apart from SRH in the IPL, she also oversees the Northern Superchargers in the UK's Hundred and the Sunrisers Eastern Cape in South Africa's SA20 league. Her focus remains razor-sharp on performance. After SRH's last-place finish in 2023, she led the franchise to a runner-up finish in 2024 and a mid-table slot in 2025. 'When you put your heart and soul into something, you naturally tend to get very personally attached to its successes and failures,' she explained. She may be trending online, but Kavya Maran's story is rooted in her passion and business, with zero staged expressions.

However, they showed remarkable improvement in 2024, securing the second position in the league and advancing to the final. The 2025 season saw a mid-table finish for SRH, with the team winning six out of their fourteen matches. Their playoff hopes were dashed relatively early in the tournament.

Kavya Maran On Her IPL Memes: 'Even If I Sit Many Feet Away, The Cameraman...'

Last Updated: Kavya Maran explains her viral reactions during IPL matches, citing her deep attachment and the cameramen's eagerness to find her from anywhere. Businesswoman Kavya Maran, the CEO and co-owner of the Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) franchise, has said she understands why her animated reactions during IPL matches, which get caught on camera and end up becoming memes on the internet. She said she has put her 'heart and soul' into SRH and is 'personally attached' to its results on the pitch, which the broadcasters' cameramen make sure to hound and capture. Kavya is the daughter of Sun Group chairman Kalanithi Maran. She became an internet sensation overnight in 2023 by leading SRH's charge in the IPL auction. Since then, she's been present at the ground for almost all of SRH's matches, and her reactions to moments on the field rapidly go viral on social media. 'Those are my raw emotions that you're seeing because my job has brought me to the point that I have to put myself out there," Kavya said in an interview with Fortune India. 'In Hyderabad, I can't do anything; I have to sit there. That's the only place I can sit. But even when I go to Ahmedabad or Chennai, and I'm sitting many feet away, somewhere in the box, the cameraman manages to find me. So, I understand how it becomes memes."

I think when you put your heart and soul into something, you naturally tend to get very personally attached to its successes and failures," she added. SRH have one IPL title to their name — 2016. They have had quite a roller coaster journey under Kavya's tutelage. In 2023, they finished last in the points table, despite building a solid team. In 2024, they went in the opposite direction, qualifying in second and reaching the final. This year, they ended mid-table, winning six of their 14 matches and being out of the playoff race quite early. Kavya also overlooks the Sunrisers Eastern Cape franchise in the South African competition, SA20. There, they are the most successful franchise, having won the first two seasons in 2023 and 2024 under Aiden Markram's captaincy. First Published:
