Yes, <keyword id="6428354" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Chris-Martin">Chris Martin</keyword> was in Delhi and yes you missed his impromptu gig at Summerhouse Café in Delhi. 
 It was a typical case of an owner’s pride and neighbour’s envy when a usual Wednesday night turned into one of the most happening ones as <keyword id="34647" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Coldplay">Coldplay</keyword>’s Chris Martin walked into the bar and played songs- Viva la vida, and Paradise. 
 
Lucky ones termed it as a moment of a lifetime and clicked pictures with the international star, who was at the café with All India Bakchod’s Tanmay Bhat, actress Freida Pinto, singers Vishal Dadlani, Raghu Dixit and men from comedy collective.

The gig was arranged in 10 minutes by the café as it was not a planned one. Kudos to Summerhouse Café as it arranged for bouncers, sound mixing console and other works within 10 minutes. 
 
So what if international artists like Adam Levine of Maroon 5, Mark Ronson, Hardwell, turn up at your café, will you be ready? 
 
We list for you 5 bars that promise to be ready under 30 minutes to host a gig by an international star. Ensure you regular these watering holes more often now, just in case someone decided on an impromptu gig! 
 
<keyword id="1983380" type="UNKNOWN" weightage="100" keywordseo="The-Backyard">The Backyard</keyword>, Aurobindo Marg 
 
 
 
This cookery and drinkout missed out on Martin by a whisker but says it will be ready in no time to host a gig by an international star. 
“We are lined up with best console and arrangements and will take us not more than 6-7 minutes to be prepared for a gig like Martin did. We already have Nikhil Chinapa playing for us and would love to have Axwell playing for us,” said co-owner of Backyard, Anukool Kumar. 
 
Hard Rock Café, Select City Walk 
 
 
Organising a last minute show is relatively very easy as we have a huge database of experienced musicians who can play at a moment’s notice, the café claimed. 
 
It was honest enough to say that they would take some time for sound check and backline but on a confirmed note it informed, “30 minutes is more than enough.” 
 
Café Delhi Heights, Select City Walk 
 
 
 
Owner Vikrant Batra is also confident that Delhi Heights will organise any gig within 30 minutes. 
"We are equipped with latest technology and operational efficiency and many times such impromptu events shape up better than many well planned ones. It not only adds to the surprise element for the customers present at the restaurant, it also gives them a reason to come back to the restaurant and reminisce the enjoyment,” said Batra. 
 
Café Terminus 1, Vasant Kunj 
 
When contacted, this café too gave a thumbs up and claimed to be prepared within half an hour. 
 
Rodeo, Connaught Place 
 
Rishi Kumar, General Manager at Rodeo, said that they are always ready with basic requirements like sound set-up and security. “In case of any celebrity playing, we need to be extra cautious due to huge popularity. Once the guidelines are understood, any special requirements by artists can also be addressed without any hassle within 30 minutes,” he added. 
 
For those who missed, Here is Chris Martin's gig:

5 pubs in Delhi that will be ready under 30 minutes for a Chris Martin kinda gig!

Us, Indians and especially us, <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=coldplay+fans&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Coldplay fans</a> love hoping against hope. 
 
We’ve wanted <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=coldplay&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Coldplay</a> to play in the country since years and after <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=chris+martin&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">Chris Martin</a>’s impromptu gig last year in Delhi followed by the band’s secret video shoot in Mumbai this year, it seemed like our dream could come true anytime now. 
 And, then we got the news. If rumours were to be believed, <keyword id="34647" type="ENTERTAINMENT" weightage="100" keywordseo="Coldplay">Coldplay</keyword> is all set to perform in Mumbai on November 19 at the NSCI stadium. 
Great news, right So we thought. Everyone in the country started crooning Fix You while making plans of saving up money for the tickets. Some, even started dreaming watching them live. 
 
All in all, it was a pretty good phase to live in- until the bubble burst. 
 
As it turned out, there was a slight catch. Watching Coldplay perform in India would come at a pretty hefty cost. 
 
According to Mid-Day, the ticket prices for their concert in Mumbai would range from Rs 25,000 to a whopping Rs 5 lakhs. Yep, that’s going to be the price of one ticket. 
 
If you feel like you don’t know why body part to auction to raise this amount, don’t worry, you’re not alone. 
 
Incase you were wondering, the official tickets are expected to go live on Book My Show on September 12 next week. 
 The concert will be a part of <keyword id="6428354" type="PERSON" weightage="100" keywordseo="Chris-Martin">Chris Martin</keyword>'s Global Citizen Festival, created to mark the establishment of the <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=united+nations&amp;sortorder=effectivedate">United Nations</a> Sustainable Development Goals.
