Rahul Subramanian vs DJs: What actually happened
In a set for his special, Subramanian said he hated going to clubs because of DJs. He said they make it difficult for everyone to enjoy as they keep muting the songs. (Of course, in good humor). However, his breakthrough special turned into a dreadful event after he was threatened by DJs, some of whom stood outside the venue to 'teach him a lesson'.
