Coldplay frontman Chris Martin surprised some lucky Delhiites when he broke into an impromptu set at an eating joint in the capital.

The 38-year-old English singer was joined onstage by Indian composer-singer Vishal Dadlani last evening, who later shared a few pictures from the jamming session.

"What can I say, really? Tonight was BIG. On stage with Chris Martin singing to a stunned Delhi crowd...," tweeted an excited Vishal, alongside a picture of Martin, plugging the guitar strings and singing, and himself on the microphone.

"Ok, I just got off stage from standing around while Chris Martin of Coldplay did an impromptu set. Holy wow!!" he further said.
 

When a fan asked whether the evening was an organised event, Vishal said, "It wasn't an event. We were at a dinner together, and he just went 'let's go play somewhere'! And, boom!" he said.

Also present at the session at Hauz Khas Village's eatery joint was actress Freida Pinto, stand-up comedy group AIB and musician Raghu Dixit, among others.

The British musician is in the country for a charity event for The Global Poverty Project, a nonprofit organization dedicated to seeing an end to extreme poverty by 2030.
