Did Anoushka Shankar introduce Arijit on stage?
Anoushka Shankar took to her Instagram handle to put out a video clip from the musical evening. She had posted, “So much more to say later, but for now, my heart!!!! Hearing the one and only @arijitsingh bringing my father’s rarely heard Bengali song to life and then sharing our new music with Kolkata was truly one for the books.”
