The heartbeat of Mumbai’s live music scene found a new rhythm this weekend as the city witnessed a groundbreaking fusion of tradition and trend. Today, the iconic Ameya Dabli—celebrated for his performances for President Droupadi Murmu and PM Narendra Modi—headlined the much-anticipated “Bhajan Clubbing” at Phoenix Marketcity, Kurla. Known as a powerhouse wedding and youth-concert icon, Ameya effortlessly bridged the gap between deep-rooted devotion, culture and contemporary artistry.
The event was hosted at the popular Dublin Square within Phoenix Marketcity Kurla in Mumbai, and this show had the entire audience on their feet – chanting, dancing and vibing to the beat. The energy at Phoenix Marketcity Kurla reached a fever pitch as the setlist moved through an emotional arc that felt both grand and deeply personal. The crowd erupted the moment the first notes of the Shri Ganesh chants filled the atrium, followed by soul-stirring Krishna Bhakti medleys that had everyone on their feet. Whether it was the rhythmic devotion of the Sai Baba tracks or the powerful, surging energy of the Mata Rani bhajans, the audience wasn’t just listening—they were part of the performance.
However, the evening took a profoundly emotional turn with a heart-wrenching tribute to Maa (Mother), a performance so soulful it left many in the audience visibly moved. This was beautifully contrasted by a high-octane rendition of the sacred Hanuman Chalisa and a powerful Shiv Bhakti sequence that pulsed with raw, ancient energy. The true “goosebump” moment, though, came with his Deshbhakti (patriotic) songs; the room transformed into a sea of pride, with the audience shouting for an encore long after the music paused. It was a revelation to see how Ameya Dabli could command such diverse energy, making the evening a total immersion in sound and spirit. To witness the crowd soaking in that vibration was an experience worth every minute, proving that #BhajanClubbing is a movement that has truly arrived.
The evening was indeed a showcase of significant minds and industry leaders, with figures like Siddharth Sibal, Vivek Tyagi, and Utkarsh in attendance to support this new wave of musical expression. For Ameya, performing at this scale is familiar territory having hosted over 2100 concerts around the globe; he remains one of the few artists trusted to represent India’s cultural soul on the most prestigious stages. Beyond his viral concerts, he has graced distinguished gatherings for the Honourable President of India, Smt Droupadi Murmu, in the presence of the nation’s entire military leadership, including the CDS, COAS, and CNS. Sharing the stage with Honourable Prime Minister Narendra Modi further solidifies his reputation as a “cultural ambassador,” capable of translating ancient spiritual values into a language that resonates with modern India.
”Whether it is singing before the Honourable President and Prime Minister or performing for young dreamers at my concerts, my mission remains the same, to inspire, to celebrate, and to create moments that stay with people forever” says Ameya Dabli
Beyond the stage, Ameya Dabli has become the gold standard for India’s luxury wedding circuit, where his name is synonymous with high-end celebrations and soulful Sufi renditions. Whether he is headlining an intimate elite gathering or an electric youth concert, Ameya delivers a rare blend of upbeat energy and deep motivation, proving that music is most powerful when it carries both a beat and a meaning.
