Tune in to a soulful gig

Arijit Singh's rise up the Bollywood charts has been nothing short of meteoric. After being discovered by Sanjay Leela Bhansali around 2015, the man from West Bengal's Murshidabad moved to Mumbai to try his luck in Bollywood, assisting directors like Pritam to begin with. He later shot to fame with chartbusters like Kabira from Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani; Nashe si char gayi from Befikre; and Phir bhi tumko chahoonga from Half Girlfriend. Catch him perform live at a much-awaited concert at a BKC venue.
