It all started late Saturday afternoon when the best of trance artists came together at the Electronic Family Stageto perform at India’s largest 2-Day Multi-Genre Indoor concert at NESCO Centre, Mumbai.

I hope that people keep loving me as they do and I keep doing more hard work to keep giving the love back to them and I will try my best honestly. I had an amazing time at EVC, thank you so much for loving me and supporting me like you do, I love you guys.” Devraj Sanyal, MD & CEO of Universal Music Group, India & South Asia said- “We’ve just witnessed one of the finest multi genre concerts the city has seen. Bringing Arijit Singh back to the EVC stage for an encore performance was the best decision we have made. We saw a mammoth crowd descending to our venue to watch a mix of Bollywood & Electronic music today & we couldn’t be happier with the response.”
