Coldplay’s lead singer Chris Martin and Slumdog Millionaire famed Freida Pinto share their travel diaries from India. They walked through slums, interacted with ragpickers and danced with underprivileged kids. Chris Martin’s surprise visit to Delhi’s Hauz Khas village followed by an impromptu gig at a cafe stirred social media the very next morning. Fans lashed out for being unlucky and missing the star’s performance.
