Sona Mohapatra, Papon and Lucky Ali enthral audiences
The three artists come together for the first time for a concert organized by Red Live in Delhi
It was an evening of pure, blissful and unadulterated indie music as three of India’s most recognized independent music artists came together to create a magical evening of music in Delhi. Red LIVE, the live entertainment vertical of Red FM, India’s leading and most awarded FM network, celebrated the myriad tunes of indie pop music by bringing together Papon, Sona Mohapatra and Lucky Ali for Red LIVE Unwind. The concert took place on 24th July 2016 at Leisure Valley in Gurgaon wherein these immensely admired artists shared the stage for the very first time.
Three artists from different eras of Indian musical history came together to enthrall audiences with their stirring numbers. Lucky Ali, among the most popular artists of the 90’s indie pop music in India with his melodious numbers such as ‘O Sanam’ and ‘Ek Pal ka Jina’, took the stage in Delhi after a long time and brought a sense of nostalgia to audiences. New-age vocalist and music composer, Papon, presented his journey of Indie pop, with his stirring songs ‘Khumaar’ ‘Moh moh ke dhaage’ and the latest ‘Bulleya’ from the superhit movie Sultan. Sona Mohapatra, true to her individualistic and explosive style, set the stage on fire with the hit numbers ‘Ambersariya’ & ‘Rupaiya’.
Commenting on this association, Nisha Narayanan, COO, 93.5 Red FM says, “Experimenting with formats and genres and bring out the most entertaining evenings for our listeners is at our core. Indie pop is an iconic genre in India that has brought to the forefront some of the best and most established singers of today – right from Lucky Ali in the 90’s to Papon and Sona in today’s times, audiences have loved and revered these artists. It was a delight to get these three performers together on one stage and what better way to celebrate this than unwinding and giving into the melody and the soul of Indie Pop.
Adding to this Rajat Uppal, National Marketing Head, 93.5 RED FM says, “The three artist have a cult following catering to the music taste of a very niche audience. This would be the first time a large format show like RED LIVE is bringing Sona, Lucky & Papon together.”
The lyrical evening witnessed a large gathering of music lovers swaying to the most loved voices in the music industry.
