Expressing his anticipation for the forthcoming performance, Khan remarked, “I am so proud to be able to bring my show to the diverse and multicultural audiences of the UAE, where there is a huge music-loving population. As well as entertaining my long-term fans, I hope to introduce the art of Rajasthani folk to a whole new crowd.”
The event, meticulously curated by Tambourine Live Events and Arts For All, promises a captivating fusion of traditional instruments and Bollywood rhythms, ensuring a two-hour spectacle that celebrates the essence of folk and Bollywood music.
Recipient of numerous accolades, including the prestigious Best Solo Album at the Jaipur Idol Music Awards 2023, Khan’s global footprint in the music industry is undeniable.
