Among the many performances, South African singer-songwriter Tyla put on the perfect show with her India debut, as she mesmerised everybody with her immersive performance that not only included some of her biggest hits but also talking about her visit.
The singer, who had arrived earlier the same day and spotted by fans in Mumbai, said, “Namaste Mumbai! How are you guys feeling? Wow! This is my first time in India. I am so happy to be here. This is such a beautiful country, my gosh! Earlier today, I wore a sari for the first time, and I was with so many amazing people. I am so excited to be performing here.” Amid this interaction, a fan did not fail to express his love for her, showcasing how her music has transcended boundaries over time.
The 23-year-old musician sang some of her most popular hits including ‘Water’, ‘Push2Start’, ‘Chanel’, ‘Truth or dare’, ‘Dynamite’, ‘ART’, ‘Is It’, ‘JUMP’, and ‘Show me love’. The Grammy Award-winning singer was also joined by Jasmine Sandlas on stage as a part of a surprise act where she performed the title track of ‘Dhurandhar’.
Tyla's debut single, ‘Getting Late’, released in 2019. Her breakthrough came with her viral 2023 hit ‘Water’. She got her Grammy for the inaugural Best African Music Performance category for the same song.
