NR Talent & Event Management's Hariharan Live in Concert: An Evening to Remember
PNN
New Delhi [India], June 16: Padma Shri Hariharan lit up The Grand Theatre at the Nita Mukesh Ambani Cultural Centre (NMACC) with his very first live performance at the venue, delivering some of his most beloved Bollywood hits in an unforgettable evening of music and nostalgia. Each rendition was met with thunderous applause, as the audience immersed themselves in the magic of his timeless voice. The concert was beautifully curated and executed by NR Talent and Event Management, helmed by Namrata Gupta Khan and Rabbani Mustafa Khan.
Despite heavy Mumbai rains, fans thronged the venue, united by their love for the maestro. Hariharan opened the show with Kesariya Balamwa. One hit followed another - Dheemi Dheemi, Roja Janeman, O Hansini, Chanda Re, Jhoka Hawa Ka, Kaash Aisa Koi Manzar, Baahon Ke Darmiyan, Nahin Samne, Jeeva Rangla, and each song met with love and spontaneous wah-wahs, and multiple song requests from an audience clearly unable to get enough!
"It's so nice to be here singing for you at this lovely theatre," Hariharan enthused in the midst of his performance.
The evening became even more special with the presence of his son, Akshay Hariharan, who joined his father on stage to reimagine and recreate the veteran singer's classics like Dauda Dauda Bhaga Bhaga Sa, Chhappa Chappa, and Kay Zhala with an electrifying EDM twist. The timing couldn't have been more perfect... performing together on Father's Day, the father-son duo brought an unmatched warmth and vibrancy to the stage.
The maestro also led a spontaneous medley session, inviting the audience to sing along to favourites like Aye Dil, Sawan Barse, and Yeh Jo Des Hai Tera. And just when everyone thought the night couldn't get better, he delivered what the audience had been waiting for all along... a soul-stirring rendition of Tu Hi Re.
The entire experience - immersive, emotive, and electric, was brought to life by NR Talent and Event Management. Founded by Namrata Gupta Khan and Rabbani Mustafa Khan, the company is known for organising concerts that are more than just shows... they are experiences where audiences feel, connect, and celebrate music in its truest form.
Namrata and Rabbani, daughter-in-law and son of the late Padma Vibhushan Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan, carry forward a rich legacy of music. Rabbani, a singer himself who has also performed on Coke Studio, brings deep insight and artistry to the company's vision. Since 2016, NR Talent has produced large-scale concerts, corporate events, and festivals across India and the globe, working with celebrated names like A.R. Rahman, Sonu Nigam, Shaan, Yo Yo Honey Singh, among others. Their signature annual event Haazri honours Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan with the 2025 edition featuring A.R. Rahman in a soulful Sufi concert attended by over 10,000 people. Very recently, they had also managed and produced Sau Saal Pehle, a one-of-a-kind tribute to Mohammed Rafi with Sonu Nigam, marking Sonu's first-ever Rafi tribute show in India.

Meet actress who made her debut at 15, left acting due to…, made a come back, gave Rs 1000 crore film, her name is…
In a world where box office records are mostly headlined by male superstars, one actress silently broke the mould — and the Rs 1000 crore ceiling — without the noise or nepotism. While most would guess names like Madhuri Dixit, Aishwarya Rai, or Katrina Kaif, the real game-changer is someone who started acting at 15, debuted in a blink-and-miss Bollywood film (Chand Sa Roshan Chehra, 2005), and then disappeared — only to rise as a megastar in South Indian cinema. Who is she? She is none other than Tamannaah Bhatia, her trajectory is anything but conventional. After her Bollywood debut, she shifted gears and made a mark down South. Her breakthrough came with Happy Days (Telugu, 2007), and her momentum continued with Tamil films like Kalloori and Ayan, solidifying her presence in both industries. Then came 2015, and the project that changed everything: Baahubali: The Beginning. The epic saga not only became a cultural phenomenon but also raked in over Rs 600 crore worldwide. Two years later, Baahubali 2: The Conclusion shattered every box office projection and made cinematic history, crossing Rs 1810 crore globally. With that, Tamannaah etched her name in history as the first Indian actress to be part of a Rs 1000 crore film, proving that a leading lady can carry the legacy of a blockbuster as powerfully as her male counterparts. Today, Tamannaah continues to strike a balance between Bollywood and South cinema. Most recently, she appeared in Raid 2 opposite Ajay Devgn, a move that reflects her effortless cross-industry appeal. She may not make headlines every day, but Tamannaah's success speaks volumes in crores.
