Chris Martin and CanadaColdplay touched the lives of millions over the weekend with their overdue concert in India. Unwittingly, one notable person who was impacted by the music play is one Chris Martin, who has taken to explaining he's "not in Coldplay."
In the aftermath of the event, plenty of Indians have confused English comedian Chris Martin for the Coldplay lead singer, and are congratulating him for the play over the weekend instead.
Though Martin isn’t necessarily upset with all the new followers (more than 1,000) from India he has gained over the past three days, he says he could live without much of the feedback meant for the other Chris. It's not clear why people are mistaking the comedian Chris for the singer Chris, but it could be because he is the only Chris Martin to have a verified account on Twitter.

The situation has gotten so out of hand, Chris notes, that he had to put "not in Coldplay" in his bio, and change his profile picture to make it obvious to all the new Indian visitors that he is probably not the Chris they are looking for.
Some Indians were upset after learning that they followed the wrong Chris. Many vented their frustrations by showing disapproval of Chris’s comic skills.

That’s not to say that the life of Coldplay’s Chris hasn’t been a little chaotic lately. Martin’s gesture of keeping half of the Indian flag tucked in his back pocket irked many who found this disrespectful. The Nationalist Congress Party spokesperson demanded an apology from Martin.
Coldplay played in Mumbai on Saturday. The band didn't charge money for tickets, but required people to earn the tickets using different campaigns to raise awareness about global poverty.
India’s Prime Minister Narendra Modi also made an appearance at the concert, albeit virtually. He made a joke about his poor singing skills. "You bring an energy that is unparalleled," Modi said, thanking the band.
