Main to Jaaduu Huun…Anand Bakshi, Jaipur 26th September, 2025

After a great launch in Mumbai in February, 2025, this show was taken to Ludhiana in March, 2025 and then to Kolkata in June, 2025. It was staged at the prestigious Birla Auditorium on 26th September, 2025. The show, scripted in our unique conversational style, presented several facets of the poet’s life and works, with focus on his philosophy and popularity. In this musical drama, 15 of his most poetic film songs were rendered in full by 6 consummate singers while another 76 mukhdas/antaras were sung in tarannum. In addition, his 6 poems were also recited. The highlight of the show was the personal anecdotes narrated by Rakesh Anand Bakshi, the son of Anand Bakshi. The event received an overwhelming appreciation.
