Holding a placard at a packed music concert is a strategic ploy used to express your affection for the performer while also trying to get eyeballs. While these placards mostly carry amusing catchphrases, an unusual one was seen at a concert of singer Lucky Ali in Bengaluru. In one of the photos, uploaded on Twitter, a person at the concert is seen holding the placard that reads “Flat (Mates) required.” Besides this, he also used hashtag “bachelorette” and gave a Twitter handle on the card.
The caption of the photo read, “You know housing situation is bad in Bengaluru when this happens in a Lucky Ali concert”.

These pics were shared widely on social media leaving many in splits.
One user came up with an amusing scenario and wrote “What if someone with another banner saying "Looking for a flat" would have been there -> "Made in Bangalore".

This one seems to have echoed the sentiment of many people living in India's IT hub.
Finding a flat is harder than finding a flatmate.

Seems like, not everyone was “lucky” enough to spot the hilarious placard at the concert.
Couldn't spot this, the stage should have been a bit height as being in the front row itself was difficult watching the full stage.

Some chose to discuss the reasons behind the struggle of finding a rental flat.
Higher deposits is the main reason behind it apart from right location
