The passion and immense talent that was brought to the fore at the festival reflected in the energy that the Shufflers brought with them. BVS has been a melting pot of all things hip hop and we witnessed enthusiasts coming together in large numbers to groove with some of India’s biggest hip hop artists.

Akshat Rathee, Co-founder and Managing Director, NODWIN Gaming said, "After having successfully conducted the Hyderabad block party, BVS Mumbai has proved to be yet another milestone we have achieved this year. With this season being a massive success, it is absolutely heart-warming to see such a huge footfall with fans flocking in from not just Mumbai but also the neighbouring regions. Hip hop music now constitutes a big chunk of the Indian pop music and with the kind of popularity it is enjoying amongst the fans, it will only continue to grow. Mumbai is also referred to as the hip hop capital of India having given some of the biggest names to the hip hop community and here, we are again, adding fresh talent to the ever growing numbers. Enthralling performances by the best hip hop artists in the country and fans jiving to some of the grooviest music ever, BVS Mumbai has definitely earned its place in the sun. Since Mumbai is a prominent market for us, we look forward to making it even bigger in the coming years."
