O Gaanewali is an intimate musical journey that will take you back in time and revive the forgotten art and stories of the legendary women performers, the tawaifs, gaanewalis, and naachnewalis. This concert pays a heartfelt homage to icons like Gauhar Jaan and Begum Akhtar, who were once the celebrities of their era but lost recognition over time.

This baithak-style concert is a rare cultural event you cannot miss in Mumbai this June.
