Ana Bekuta, a passionate supporter of Slobodan Milošević and a favorite of Aleksandar Vučić, held her anniversary concert on February 14 in Arena Zagreb, celebrating 40 years of her career. However, what was anticipated as a spectacular event turned into a debacle, as the venue was far from full, and the audience's restrained reaction indicated a lack of genuine interest that did not justly reflect the scale of the space.

Despite featuring guest performers like Alka Vuica, the overall impression of the concert did not significantly improve. Many attendees expressed disappointment, particularly criticizing Bekuta's rendition of well-known Croatian hits, which some felt missed the mark and failed to resonate with the audience. The visual evidence from the event showed a sparse crowd, amplifying critiques of her appeal and connection with her fan base.

This event could spark discussions about the current state of Bekuta's career and the broader implications for artists with political connections in the region. It raises questions about how shifting public interests and political affiliations may influence an artist's popularity and performance success in contemporary Croatia and its cultural landscape.
