Producer Bilan Yana Rudkovskaya responded to Pokrovsky's criticism. She stated that the violations revealed at the concert had nothing to do with the cancellation of the concert "The leg was cramped." "This is funny. Dima followed all the rules, he was vaccinated, the whole team was vaccinated. There were 50% of the audience. <...> We seated everyone. When it was announced that 50% of the audience, the organizers made seats, everything was observed. Dima asked several times to put on a mask. If some girl was without a mask, this is definitely not a question for Dima, but for the organizers. What did Bilan violate in this case? — said Rudkovskaya RBC. She suggested that Pokrovsky was trying to draw attention to himself with his statement.
