Shakira India tour dates

The Mumbai concert was scheduled to take place at Mahalaxmi Racecourse in Mumbai on April 10, followed by the second show at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi on April 15.

Shakira's India concert is postponed due to escalating tensions in West Asia, because of the United States-Israel's military attacks on Iran.

Iran has also taken aim at US and Israeli assets in the Gulf countries.

The conflict led to Iran's shutdown of the Strait of Hormuz. India is also affected by rising tensions, causing gas shortages.
