Bachchan’s world tour axed, ‘coz of SRK?

Bachchan Parivaar were going abroad about their talks regarding their Unforgettable tour for the last two months, but the first part of the tour has been shockingly called off at last minute, as the promoters showed disinterest in the tour.

A source says, “Fans who had purchased tickets in Rotterdam and Oberhausen, were very disappointed as the tour was called off at the last minute but we could do nothing about it. We arrived at the decision to call off the tour after weighing the pros and cons of every possible solution. The local promoters defaulted at the last minute making it impossible for us to continue with the shows.”

But another source gives a different story about the poor ticket sales and high priced tickets, adding, The official take is that local promoters defaulted and did not meet the requirements of Wizcraft and stars on the tour. However, one of the main reasons for calling off the tour is mediocre ticket sales. The tickets are very expensive and ‘the meet and greet with the stars’ comes at an additional price. Also, as compared to the Unforgettable tour, the tickets of SRK’s Temptations shows were much cheaper. Considering another Temptations tour being in the offing in Europe including Germany, Bollywood fans were in no mood to buy expensive tickets for the Unforgettable tour.”

However Amitabh Bachchan denies this rumor, “The promoters of the show have defaulted on the contract… I’m not authorized to give a comment on this. And ticket price is not an issue. All our other nine shows in Canada, Trinidad and in entire USA and London were sold out.’

Well what do you think guys? What is the real reason for the show being cancelled?
