We are also involved in making music for social causes, and PM Modi has shown a keen interest in our music in all these awareness projects. Since music has no boundaries, we perform all kinds of music. Indian music is like preparing “Kichidi”, where just rice is not enough to make Kichidi, but also needs other ingredients- similarly in our music, just one kind of music is not enough, we need to add other types of music. We are a mixed culture and we want to keep it that way. So see you all tonight, be there and enjoy the best concert of your lifetime. Period!”.
