Mehfil-e-Jagjit

Jagjit Singh had a voice like none other and a style of his own. The trailblazer was a composer, a singer, a lyricist and an arranger all in one. The mehfil was held to commemorate five year's of the legend's passing. 

Sathya Saran, author of Jagjit Singh's biography, Baat Niklegi Toh Phir: The Life and Music of Jagjit Singh took us on a multimedia journey through the milestones of the legendary singer's life. In addition, we hosted the amazing Indie Routes who performed some of Jagjit Singh's greatest hits live!
