He also turned emotional and wrote, "love every moment you're in, coz life is extremely fragile. You have no idea what artists have to go through to simply do what they love and give you the music you keep so close to your heart… Heart will be heavy, void will be felt, stories will be shared about how we should be close to our loved ones and slow down in life and not take stress. But a few days later everything will resume as if nothing happened...that is what's messing with my head right now." He also mourned for the loss of Edava Basheer… "Unfortunately we lost another talented soul yesterday. Playback singer #EdavaBasheer garu lost his life whilst performing on stage. May his soul rest in peace".

Armaan raised his voice for better management and medical facilities at the concerts. "Concerts in India need better mgmt, medical & emergency facilities. I've seen and been part of far too many shows that don't serve the right conditions for us to perform in. But yet, being the artists we are, we continue with performing coz we don't wanna disappoint our fans."

He also replied to a netizen who asked Armaan to put a condition in the agreements to provide better facilities. "FYI many artists don't even have show contracts w promoters & if they are at a level where they do & they were properly followed we wouldn't have to see a day like this. When artists stick to their contracts and don't budge, promoters say 'attitude bahut hai, maangein toh dekho'."

He also said, "Health comes first. Nothing else matters. We are all learning it the hard way."
