American rapper Travis Scott’s ‘Circus Maximus’ concert at Mahalaxmi Racecourse turned into a hotspot for large-scale theft, with 36 fans reporting gold jewellery, diamond pendants and mobile phones stolen, collectively worth over Rs 28 lakh. Tardeo police have registered seven FIRs covering 24 stolen mobile phones and 12 missing gold chains and diamond pendants, making it one of the biggest theft incidents recorded at a Mumbai concert.

Police said the thefts took place during peak crowd movement inside the packed venue, with many fans realising their valuables were missing only after they exited. Officers believe a coordinated pickpocketing gang used the loud music, dim lighting and chaotic crowd flow to target attendees. Senior Police Inspector Sawalaram Salgaonkar said the investigation is progressing quickly and assured that arrests will be made soon.
