Tribute concert for Anuj Bidve in London

Stars from the entertainment industry in Maharashtra today came together for an eight-hour extravaganza in London to raise funds for the family of Indian student Anuj Bidve, who was shot dead in Manchester last year.

The murdered student’s parents attended the concert at the O2, earlier known as the Millennium Dome.

Tickets for the concert were sold out, organisers said, and added that the Bidve family will be presented with a cheque of Rs 10 lakh by senior Labour MP Keith Vaz to repay the loan they had taken to send Anuj to study Microelectronics in  Lancaster University in the UK.
