The New Jersey concert of the tour was supposed to be held on Saturday at Cure Insurance Arena, Trenton, New Jersey. However, Amit Jaity, the promoter of the show, has now released a statement saying it stands cancelled.

“We hold our beloved audience and their expectations from us at the highest level. We strive to deliver nothing but quality shows in the tri-state area. But, there are times when things just don’t work out in our favour and we have to make tough choices and make the hardest decisions. It is with a big Sorry this time, that we have to let our audience down and announce the cancellation of The Entertainers Tour show featuring Akshay Kumar and others,” Amit Jaity was quoted as saying by DNA. 

Jaity elaborated on the cause of the cancellation and asserted that it has been done due to the slow sale of tickets and little demand for them in the region. 

“In the spirit of full transparency, the main reason for the cancellation is the extremely slow sales of tickets for the show, this has led to it not being financially viable unless we booked some very huge losses from the show. It is evident that this show has very little demand and we have realized that the tour was not appropriately promoted for awareness to spread in the South Asian diaspora in the United States. With the less than stellar support for marketing from the tour organizer and we have no other choice,” he added.

Amit Jaity in his statement pointed out that everybody who has already bought tickets will be refunded as the due process by the ticketing vendor or the promoter. The refund process began on Sunday, reported DNA. 

As per the latest DNA report, this is the latest successive setback in the week for Akshay Kumar on the professional front. The first one being - Selfiee - which also witnessed a low opening at the box office despite huge expectations. ALSO READ | Akshay Kumar-Emraan Hashmi Starrer Selfiee Turns Box Office FAILURE!
