So get ready to celebrate this New Year’s Eve with some Sufi music. The Indian Sufi playback singer will be there at Soaltee Crowne Plaza on the Nepali New Year’s Eve, April 13. Here’s the video released from Kailash Kher confirming his visit to Nepal. He also promises his words for Nepal Tourism Year 2011 in the video.
“Hi this is Kailash Kher and I am coming to Kathmandu to rock you guys and to celebrate Nepal Tourism Year 2011 and hope to see you there.”
But this is not the first time Kailash Kher is visiting Nepal. Speaking at the event, he revealed that he has visited Nepal previously to perform at a private party at Hyatt regency. And this is less or more similar to the private function as Sherpa expresses, “It will be more of a private event,” adding it will be followed by an after-party including a fashion show.
It was the Song Allah ke Bande from movie Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part II that made him a household name. Other two songs Teri Deewani from the album of the same name by his band Kailasa and especially the song Ya Rabba from the movie Salaam-e-Ishq has become a record-seller.
