Sharing her excitement for the performance, Gandhi said, “I’ve been a huge fan of Ed’s for quite a while! In fact, I’ve also covered some of his music in the past. I absolutely love how versatile he is. He crosses over into different genres so seamlessly and in a way that feels so authentic, which is something I really admire. I was really disappointed to miss his last performance in Mumbai as I was performing elsewhere that day, but I’m so excited to see him perform live and even more stoked to share a stage with him in Chennai. Really looking forward to it!”
Having performed alongside musicians like A.R. Rahman, Sonu Nigam, Shankar Mahadevan, Anirudh Ravichander and Arijit Singh, Gandhi is known for blending genres and languages in her work.
She recently shared the stage with Arijit Singh in Delhi, praising the experience as “one for the books”.
