Chris Martin and Sarah Shevon ArchivesColdplay touched the lives of millions over the weekend with their overdue concert in India. Unwittingly, one notable person who was impacted by the music play is one Chris Martin, who has taken to explaining he's "not in Coldplay."

In the aftermath of the event, plenty of Indians have confused English comedian Chris Martin for the Coldplay lead singer, and are congratulating him for the play over the weekend instead.

Though Martin isn’t necessarily upset with all the new followers (more than 1,000) from India he has gained over the past three days, he says he could live without much of the feedback meant for the other Chris. It's not clear why people are mistaking the comedian Chris for the singer Chris, but it could be because he is the only Chris Martin to have a verified account on Twitter.
