India suddenly seems to have become a magnet for celebrities worldwide as English singer Ed Sheeran just announced a concert in Mumbai – scheduled for later this year.

The news comes on the same day that Baby musician Justin Bieber landed in the city, and marks Sheeran singer as the third major international artist to perform in India – the first one being Coldplay.
