Singer Rafaqat Ali Khan
The Bollywood Brass Band is joined by Pakistani singer Rafaqat Ali Khan, to pay tribute to 60 years of Indian and Pakistani film soundtracks.
Some of the greatest pop songs in the history of the world, played in special arrangements by the Bollywood Brass Band, and sung by the incredible voice of Rafaqat Ali Khan. A performance that is by turns passionate, tender, dramatic, and humorous, and will leave the audience spellbound – and dancing. The show is accompanied by the original video sequences and synched to the live music by our VJ.
