In his Instagram Story, Jackson wrote, "It’s heartbreaking to hear what happened today in Ahmedabad. My prayers to all the families and to everyone affected.

His compassionate message quickly went viral online, with fans praising him for acknowledging the tragedy and showing solidarity during such a sensitive time.

One user wrote, "God bless Jackson." Not many idols would post when they’re just in the country for a visit.

This news has broken my heart. So many poor people have lost their lives. As a British-Indian, it hits particularly hard when I still have family in India and my mom and sister are going there for a trip next month. May all those beautiful souls rest in peace, and I wish their families well in this devastating time."

Another mentioned, "He's very sweet to speak up about this." I'm so sorry to the victims and to their families, and I'm praying for the survivor."

"That's really nice of him!" This was indeed a huge tragedy today! Although I don't live in India, the news I got from my relatives today shocked me. On the TV too I saw the live footage, and there were 242 people!!?? Gladly, one man survived. But I feel so bad for the others' families! May their souls rest in peace," a third wrote.

One mentioned. "The celebs in India are soo useless, they don't speak out on anything and I am soo used to it that, I don't expect them to do it these days,, really glad Jackson spoke out!"

Jackson is currently in India promoting his upcoming album Magic Man 2. Throughout his visit, the Chinese singer has shown a genuine appreciation for Indian culture, and his constant interaction with fans has only deepened his connection to the region. From collaborating with Diljit Dosanjh to trying Indian cuisine and embracing traditional fashion, Jackson’s down-to-earth charm continues to win hearts.

Adding to the excitement, he recently met Bollywood superstar Hrithik Roshan and his family. In multiple interviews, Jackson hinted at a possible collaboration with Roshan for the upcoming film Krrish 4. In a conversation with Elle, he teased, “Maybe I’ll participate in the music track. Or maybe I’ll be acting. I’ve never acted before.”

This isn’t Jackson’s first connection to India. In 2023, he headlined Lollapalooza India, becoming one of the first major K-pop acts to perform at a large-scale music festival in the country.
