Patna: Music lovers in Bihar are in for a treat as celebrated playback singer and Sufi maestro Kailash Kher is set to perform at the Rajgir Mahotsav on December 19, marking his return to the festival after nearly 12 years.
Preparations for the annual cultural extravaganza are complete, with organisers promising a memorable evening of music, art, and folk heritage. Kher, renowned for hits such as Teri Deewani, Allah Ke Bande, Saiyyan, and Chak De Phatte, will perform under his signature program, Kailasa, at the invitation of the Nalanda district administration.
Kher last performed at the Rajgir Mahotsav in December 2013, sharing the stage with poetess Kavita Seth in a performance still fondly remembered by audiences. His return has sparked excitement among fans eager to experience the soulful depth and Sufi essence of his live music.
The Rajgir Mahotsav, set against the backdrop of the historic and spiritual city of Rajgir, is known for celebrating India’s rich cultural and folk traditions. Organisers believe Kher’s performance will appeal to audiences across generations, drawing families, young people, and elders alike.
Music enthusiasts say a live performance by Kailash Kher is a unique experience, with his emotive voice providing a sense of spiritual bliss. The evening of December 19 is therefore highly anticipated as a highlight of this year’s festival.
