Dressed in vibrant, floral-themed shirts and colourfully printed jerseys, husbands danced with their wives, fathers danced with their daughters, couples and singles alike – all entranced in the music of Gipsy Kings, when they performed in Mumbai in the beginning of June.

The French band with origins in Spain, saw Montpellier-based ‘Gipsy Kings by Diego Bailardo’ come to the island city, after Pune and before Bengaluru, as part of their three-city ‘Bamboleo Tour’ in India. If you were there, you know it was nothing short of a carnival that also happened to mark 35 years since the release of their song ‘Bamboleo’, one among many hits.
