Memories of a lifetime!
by Kali4u on 8/13/18Taft Theatre - CincinnatiSukhwinder Singh is a performer par excellence. He gave his all to the crowd that came out to watch him on Aug. 10. For audiences outside India it would be hard to appreciate the popularity of Sukhwinder, but for Indians he is a cherished idol. He has sung these fantastic Bollywood songs that are the mainstay of everyday Indian life; the films for which he sings are among the megablockbusters of Bollywood film history . I drove from Dayton, OH for the concert but I'm sure others came in from much further for this rare treat. Sukhwinder was incredibly generous toward his fans, allowing them on a couple of occasions to come on stage to dance to his singing. Security nipped any more such audience participation; sadly, as that was probably the highlight for many in the audience who only imagine sharing the stage with Sukhwinder in their dreams! Only negative was the weak AC; it was uncomfortably hot in the theatre. But what the heck: that made it feel closer to India!
