Produced and curated by Dr. Heramb Shelke and Paytm Insider, this event marked a significant milestone in Pune’s cultural landscape.
The concert, held over the weekend, saw an extraordinary total attendance of 39,000 enthusiastic music aficionados. Presented by Imperial Blue Super Hit Nights, in association with Sanjay Ghodawat Group and Kingfisher, the event not only showcased top-tier talent but also received tremendous support from renowned sponsors.
This landmark event has cemented its place in the history of India’s live entertainment industry by hosting the largest number of attendees for a four-hour concert. The overwhelming response from Pune’s residents underscores the city’s vibrant cultural scene and its appetite for top-notch entertainment experiences.
