The moment gained traction on social media, with various comments reflecting on the situation. As part of the anniversary celebrations, HCL announced plans for nine more concerts across different cities in the coming year. Additionally, the company collaborated with the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation to provide free metro rides and extended service hours until 12:30 am, ensuring employees could travel home safely after the late-night event.
