Talking about his first cross country musical tour, Arijit Singh said, “I am extremely excited to begin my first integrated and exclusive India tour in Kolkata. This is home turf for me, since I was born in Murshidabad, and I look forward to an amazing performance on Christmas Eve.  This journey along with GiMA& MTV will definitely be an incredible experience for me.”

 

The Royal Stag Mega Music Arijit Singh Live in Concert- MTV India Tour powered by Wizcraft will be held at the Eco Park in New Town, on the eastern fringe of Kolkata, on Dec 24 (6.30pm onwards).

 

Sabbas Joseph, Director & Co-Founder Wizcraft International said, “Wizcraft International has always endeavored to bring forth artists, and concepts that are unique and larger than life concerts witnessed never before. We are glad to present a series of live concerts under the aegis of GiMA concerts in partnership with Viacom18’s MTV with the reigning superstar, Arijit Singh, which also happens to be his first national tour. These concerts are scheduled in the ten cities across the nation with an aim to bring the superstar closer to his mammoth fan base. We look forward to entertain audiences with the best of his music.” 

 

 

The concert series, an initiative of GiMA Concerts, is slated to travel to 10 cities in India until March 2018. 

 

Raj Nayak, COO, Viacom18 said, "MTV has always been a pioneer where music programming is concerned. Be it introducing India to music television to creating the biggest ever music format shows such as MTV Unplugged, Coke Studio@MTV, MTV Spoken Word and many more. This is the one brand that not only understands music but is also the ultimate word on the youth and is always in tune with what they like. A multi-city concert with one of the most celebrated young singers of today, Arijit Singh ticks all the right boxes for us and who better than Wizcraft to execute such a fantastic initiative at such a grand scale. All I can say is, what you see is just the beginning of perhaps a new phenomenon where artist tours are concerned. Just remember MTV brought it to you first!”

 

Arijit Singh has sung over 150 tracks, won more than 50 popular awards and has been recognized as the most-heard artist for four consecutive years, according to a release by the organisers.
