The musical night held to celebrate Jagjit Singh’s 70th birthday was surely an affair to remember for all his fans and ardent music lovers.
The musical confluence titled Tridhara had not just one, but three maestros who put up a marvellous performance. Jagjit Singh had the audience under a spell with his soulful voice, while Pandit Hariprasad Chaurasia on basuri, and Ustad Zakir Hussain on tabla, created magic.

The musical interlude was undoubtedly spectacular. The initiative was supported by Gitanjali Lifestyle, a name associated with quality and known for encouraging culture that helps the young and old find their roots with respect to music and art. Speaking on the occasion, Mehul Choksi, CMD, Gitanjali Group, said, “Like jewellery, music is very much rooted in Indian culture, yet has evolved with the times and has a contemporary face.
It was indeed an honour and privilege to be associated with such a spectacular show where three legends of Indian music came together for the first time, and we will always come forward to support events that represent the lifestyle of the modern Indian.” On the eve of his birthday, the ghazal maestro was ecstatic as he shared the stage with equally eminent music geniuses and did what he is most fond of and loved, amidst a crowd who sat spellbound during the entire show. All three legends would cherish the spectacular night but it would have been extra special for all those who witnessed them in person in this grand event. Post the event the trio posed for pictures and shared some happy memories.
