The Bollywood Music Project, a grand musical festival that music lovers eagerly look forward to every year, was recently held in style. Every year, several renowned singers and musicians get a chance to perform here. This year, alongside musical giants like Shankar Mahadevan, Farhan Akhtar, Shaan, Ehsaan, Anu Malik, and Salim–Sulaiman Merchant, singer Abhijeet Sawant was also a part of this musical extravaganza.
This year’s festival became even more special and memorable because of Abhijeet Sawant’s soulful performance and timeless songs. Ever since winning hearts on Indian Idol, Abhijeet continues to charm audiences wherever he performs — and this event was no exception.
During his performance, Abhijeet presented many songs from his 20-year-long musical journey. Along with Hindi and Marathi tracks, he recreated the magic of his evergreen hits. From the youth-favorite ‘Mohabbatein Lutaunga’ to the Marathi classic ‘Sar Sukhachi Shravani’, his performance was a treat for the audience.
On this grand Bollywood stage, Abhijeet not only performed in Hindi but also sang a Marathi song — winning the hearts of non-Marathi listeners as well. By performing “Sar Sukhachi Shravani,” he proudly represented his Marathi roots and proved that music transcends language.
Speaking about his experience, Abhijeet said “This stage is truly huge — audiences here include everyone from kids to youth, all listening and watching us with so much enthusiasm. Performing songs they love is not just our duty, but also a way to give them a nostalgic experience.
Even though this is the Bollywood Music Project, I felt it was important to include a Marathi song for my fans. It was amazing to see even non-Marathi people responding so warmly to Sar Sukhachi Shravani. It proves that art has no language. Today’s youth may listen to hip-hop, remixes, and DJ music, but festivals like this help them reconnect with original, timeless songs — and that makes me happy.”
When a Marathi artist shares the stage with so many legendary musicians, it’s indeed a proud moment for every Marathi person. As Abhijeet Sawant completes 20 years in the music industry, he continues to surprise fans with his versatile and trending performances, staying true to his roots while evolving with the times.
