Kicking off the evening with the deeply evocative 'Sapna Vinani Raat', Gadhvi instantly set the tone for an immersive musical journey. The momentum only grew with the thunderous beats of 'Vitthal Vitthal', 'Shivaji Nu Halardu', and 'Naagar Nandji Na Laal', transforming the entire venue into a pulsating Garba dance floor. Enhanced by snow bubbles, flames, synchronized Xylobands, and vivid stage visuals, the atmosphere turned electric.
When the opening notes of 'Khalasi', the breakout folk anthem, hit the air, the crowd erupted in unison, chanting every lyric in celebration. The show reached its emotional high point with performances of 'Laadki', 'Rang Bhini', and 'Mahahetvali', leaving the audience in rapturous awe. Among the thousands cheering was Darshan Raval, Gadhvi's friend and fellow singer-songwriter, spotted singing along with the crowd.
Shoven Shah, Founder & CEO of TribeVibe Entertainment, reflected on the concert's success, 'Mumbai's incredible response to Aditya Gadhvi's folk fusion spectacle reinforces what we've always believed — when exceptional artists meet passionate audiences, something magical happens. At TribeVibe, our mission is to bring live, unforgettable musical experiences to fans across India."
Echoing that sentiment, Aditya Gadhvi shared, 'It was an absolute pleasure to perform in front of the vibrant Mumbai audience this weekend. I'm deeply grateful for the immense love and support this city always shows me. I promise I'll be back soon!"

Actress Janki Bodiwala , who is known for her work in 'Vash', and 'Shaitaan,' will soon be seen in the sequel to her Gujarati film 'Vash.' The actress said that watching, learning, and absorbing the skills from cinema biggies Ajay Devgn and R. Madhavan , and Jyotika in 'Shaitaan' prepared him well for 'Vash Vivash Level 2.' The 2023 Gujarati supernatural thriller 'Vash' was a landmark moment for Gujarati cinema. This re-release season, the film is heading to the theaters once again and will bow on August 22 in cinemas in Gujarat. The sequel, titled 'Vash Vivash Level 2', also stars Hiten Kumar, Hitu Kanodia, Monal Gajjar, Chetan Daiya , and Prem Gadhavi. The film delves deeper into the dark and supernatural saga of an ordinary family caught once again in the sinister web of an enigmatic figure with mysterious powers. For Janki Bodiwala, who reprises her role in Vash Vivash after also playing it in 'Shaitaan', the journey this time was more demanding than ever. Reflecting on her process, she shared, "Honestly, just watching Ajay sir and Madhavan sir work was like being in a potent acting workshop every day. The control, the subtlety, and the consistency of two masters. I carried that same restraint into Level 2, especially in the high-tension scenes". by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like American Investor Warren Buffett Recommends: 5 Books For Turning Your Life Around Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo She further mentioned, "'Level 2' pushed me harder emotionally.

Rajinder had alleged that he transferred money to the tune of INR 75 lakhs for the dubbing of 'Drishyam 2' for its release in the Chinese market, including China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan. Tired of too many ads? go ad free now The court found no substance in the allegations against Kumar Mangat Pathak after considering the facts, circumstances, and evidence on record. The court observed in the ledger entries that the payment made to the corporate account of Panorama Studios International Limited by Rajinder Goel was for a Gujarati film, and not for 'Drishyam 2.' The producer's legal team said in a statement, "It is categorically stated that Mr. Kumar Mangat Pathak on behalf of his company Panorama Studios International Limited (PSIL) has never entered into any transaction or agreement with Mr. Rajinder Goel, and as such, he has never invested any money with Mr. Kumar Mangat Pathak or PSIL. His allegations are false, baseless, concocted and appear to be an afterthought designed to create a misleading and malicious narrative with intentions to malign the reputation of Kumar Mangat Pathak and PSIL. It is further clarified that any dealings , transactions done by Mr. Rajinder Goel were solely with a third party and not with Mr. Kumar Mangat Pathak or his company. Any attempt to link Mr. Kumar Mangat Pathak to such transactions is wholly unfounded and malicious."

Independence Day weekend promises huge box office boost for Indian cinema
Indian theatres are gearing up for one of the year's biggest box-office weekends this Independence Day, with Yash Raj Films' War 2 and Rajinikanth's Coolie expected to deliver a combined opening of ₹ 120–130 crore, according to trade experts. The success of recent films like Saiyaara ( ₹ 300 crore) and Mahavatar Narsimha ( ₹ 130 crore) has lifted industry sentiment. War 2 adds to YRF's hit spy universe, home to blockbusters such as Pathaan ( ₹ 543.05 crore) and War ( ₹ 318.01 crore). Meanwhile, Coolie, starring Rajinikanth and directed by Lokesh Kanagaraj, is riding massive excitement across Tamil Nadu and southern markets. 'War 2 naturally has a strong pull in Hindi-speaking markets, but Jr. NTR's presence is also driving substantial chatter in the South, especially across Andhra Pradesh and Telangana," said Ashish Saksena, chief operating officer - cinemas, BookMyShow. "Meanwhile, Coolie pairs the mass appeal of Rajinikanth with director Lokesh Kanagaraj's stylish, action-heavy storytelling. The film has seen immediate excitement across Tamil Nadu as also South India broadly and is also beginning to generate curiosity beyond its home market, thanks to Rajinikanth's enduring pan-India fan base and in part to reports of Aamir Khan's involvement,' he added. While both titles are expected to cater to different primary markets, some overlap is anticipated in metro cities, where language barriers are increasingly blurring and audiences are more open to cross-regional cinema, Saksena added. As far as advance bookings go, War 2 has seen notable interest from audiences in Delhi-NCR, Mumbai, Pune and other tier-one cities in the north and west, driven by the franchise's popularity and the cast's pan-India appeal. Coolie, on the other hand, is gaining strong momentum across Chennai, Coimbatore and other key hubs in Tamil Nadu, Telangana and Kerala, where Rajinikanth's fanbase continues to dominate. That said, some movie trade experts are quick to point out the buzz for both films remains below par and given that both are action-driven multi-starrers, they could eat into each other's business. 'The hype isn't extraordinary at the moment but the good thing is content has gone through a correction and producers are finally learning what can drive masses to theatres. Films are beginning to achieve basic numbers now and no longer tanking like they were immediately after Covid,' independent exhibitor Vishek Chauhan said. According to Chauhan, if the Independence Day releases manage to get strong word-of-mouth, they have the potential to "fire at the box office." The past few weeks have seen steady footfalls with films like Su From So, Jurassic World: Rebirth, Superman, Thalaivan Thalaivii, and Sitare Zameen Par. With August offering a string of festivals, this Independence Day frame could rival Diwali in scale. 'In North India, the box office turned around in June with Sitare Zameen Par, followed by strong numbers in July. August is expected to raise the bar further with these Independence Day releases," said Bhuvanesh Mendiratta, managing director, Miraj Entertainment Ltd that operates multiplex theatres. "In the South, the performance has varied by state—Tamil Nadu and Karnataka have been strong, Malayalam cinema has done well, but Telugu cinema has been quieter in recent months. The I-Day weekend should give the South a significant boost, particularly in the Telugu and Tamil markets,' he added.
