Madhubanti Bagchi announces her first India tour, eight cities from 14 November to 13 February

Madhubanti Bagchi, the voice behind some of the biggest Hindi film hooks of the last two years, is taking her songs on the road for the first time. Her debut India tour, This Is Who We Are, opens in Hyderabad on 14 November 2026 and runs through to Mumbai on 13 February 2027.

For readers new to her: Bagchi is a playback singer and composer trained in Hindustani classical music in the Agra gharana. She is the voice of "Aaj Ki Raat" from Stree 2, and her other film credits include "Uyi Amma" from Azaad, "Nazariya Ki Maari" from Heeramandi, "Barbaadiyan" from Shiddat and "Ramba Ho" from Dhurandhar. She also appears on "Tu Mil Jaaye" from KING, which came out this week.

What the show promises

The tour is produced by Perfect Harmony Productions. It is billed as a two-hour live set with an orchestral band and no lip-syncing, built around her film hits. Student passes start at Rs 499, and there is no VIP seating: the organisers say they want every ticket holder to have the same experience, which is unusual for an Indian arena-scale run where premium tiers are the norm.

Bagchi has said the tour is about moving her music off screens and playlists and into a room with people. For a singer whose songs have mostly reached audiences through cinema and streaming, that is the point of the exercise.

Why it matters

Playback singers in India have long been famous for their voices and anonymous on stage. A first headline tour for a singer who rose with Stree 2 and Dhurandhar is another sign of how far live music in the country has moved beyond the traditional pop star. The dates also reach Sambhajinagar and Ahmedabad alongside the usual metros, and the announced-soon list leans on tier-two cities.
