Mumbai, Jun 7: A 35-year-old man died and a woman was hospitalised after they allegedly consumed excessive alcohol during a music event in Mumbai in the early hours of Sunday, police said.

The incident took place during the 'Klangkuenstler All Night Long' music show held at the NSCI Dome in the Worli area, according to officials from the Tardeo police station.

Police said the man and the woman were attending the event and dancing when they allegedly consumed large quantities of alcohol, including cocktails.

Both later complained of health issues and were rushed to hospital for treatment. The man was declared dead while undergoing treatment at Breach Candy Hospital, while the woman remains under medical care and is reported to be recovering.

Preliminary investigations suggest that dehydration may have contributed to the man's death. However, police said the exact cause will be determined after further investigation and medical examination.

An Accidental Death Report (ADR) has been registered and the Tardeo police are probing the incident from all angles.

The incident comes months after two MBA students who attended a music concert at the NESCO Exhibition Centre in Goregaon allegedly died due to a drug overdose. Several persons were later arrested in connection with that case.
