'DhoomMachale' singer Sunidhi Chauhan making her Sri Lankan debut on November 22

Plans were recently finalised to bring down top Bollywood playback talent Sunidhi Chauhan to perform her maiden concert, scheduled for the evening of November 22 at the Sri Lanka Exhibition and Convention Centre (SLECC).

Widely regarded as the most sought after Bollywood playback singer working today, Sunidhi has lent her voice to a number of hit songs performed on the big screen by Bollywoods’current crop of leading ladies. Her hip sound lends itself to Katrina Kaif, Kareena Kapoor, Priyanka Chopra, Deepika Padukone and Jacqueline Fernandez starrers, as well as  perennial fan favourites Aishwarya Rai, Rekha, Madhuri Dixit, Kajol, Sridevi, Preity Zinta and Rani Mukerji to name a few.

Perhaps most famous for a number of hit songs featured on the soundtrack of the "Dhoom" trilogy of box office hits, with "DhoomMachale" undoubtedly being one of the most popular, Sunidhi has also recorded songs for other high grossing Bollywood films, such as "Murder 2" ("Aa Zara"), "The Dirty Picture" ("IshqSufiyana"), "Tees Maar Khan" ("Sheila Ki Jawani") and "Guzaarish" ("Gun GunGuna" and "Udi"), just to name a few.

For these, she has also received numerous awards including the 2010 Big Star Entertainment Award for Singer of The Decade, the 2011 Chevrolet Global Indian Music Award (GIMA) for Best Live Performer, as well as the Filmfare and the Global Indian Film awards for Best Play Back Singer in 2011. Most recently, she received the 2014 Dadasaheb Phalke award for Best Playback Singer.

Something to look forward to, for the Sri Lankan audience, is Sunidhi's highly lauded stage presence powered by her high-watt energy and charisma. She will be backed by her original band who took the Royal Albert hall by storm last year and supported by a troupe of Bollywood style dancers from Sri Lanka, guaranteeing top class live entertainment through and through!

So, now is the chance to catch the number one singing star of Bollywood, Sunidhi. A talent who, by the age of 19, had already recorded over 350 unforgettable songs and who has firmly established herself as the best playback singer. Now she climbs a notch higher as an international headliner, having been featured at high-profile events such the opening ceremony of the 2006 Asian Games in Doha.

In 2011, Sunidhi also garnered worldwide acclaim when she released a breakthrough international pop single in collaboration with Enrique Iglesias, a Hindi version of his song "Heartbeat", which also proved the first time a female Indian talent has crossed over to make an indelible mark in mainstream pop. In fact, since then, Sunidhi has also further extended her range and released her first Electronic Dance Music single, "Ab Laut Aa", joining with Sanjoy Deb to do so.

Sunidhi has served as a recurring judge on the immensely popular Indian Idol, alongside Anu Malik and Salim Merchant, which is an honour she most recently shared with Bollywood playback singing legend Asha Bhosale, on the sixth edition of this programme.

With Sri Lankan crowds’penchant for having a good time, this show is sure to set the benchmark for great entertainment.
