Just had a show at the Zee Heritage India festival in Chantilly, VA on May 31st. I have to say the experience was quite a rush…the festival was HUGE with over 10,000 visitors..it felt just like a giant mela(festival) in India with hundreds of stalls and booths for everything from clothes to jewelry to textiles.
The organizers of the festival allotted me a 2 hour show for Saturday evening. At first I was worried how I would carry a show by myself for 2 hours..I prepared about 14 songs to sing and choreographed dance parts as well – needless to say, it required plenty of prep time. Once I started performing though and saw the crowd loving the popular bollywood tracks as well as my own songs, I felt at ease and actually enjoyed myself on stage. I was touched by the response I got by people of all ages and the number of people who offered their encouraging and supportive words.
My favorite part of the night was when a little girl came up to me with a piece of paper and asked me for my autograph telling me “You rock!”. It made my day. Looking forward to the next show!

Gearing up for May 31st Concert!
I'm so excited about my upcoming performance at the Heritage India Festival in Chantilly this Saturday (May 31st). We're told there will be over 5,000 people there, and I've put together a special mix of my songs and hit songs for the evening. Lots of energy in the music 'cos you all know how much I love to dance! Want to see me dance or listen to one of my songs? Check out my music video, Maahiya.
Let me know what you think, I love feedback!
