WindSong Music Festival is back and Bollywood actor-filmmaker Farhan Akhtar will perform at the gala mix of music, food, drinks, adventure games and forest camping against a picturesque backdrop.
The festival, organised by Percept Live and World Of Yellow, will be held in Hyderabad from November 29-30, New Delhi from January 24-25 and Mumbai from February 28- March 1.
“I’m really looking forward to perform for the first time at a music festival. I can’t wait to get up close and personal with my fans. Farhan Live has always been about moulding the ‘artist-to-fan’ direct connect as well as spreading a social message through my music to young audiences,” Akhtar said in a statement.
Along with the Bhaag Milkha Bhaag star, the music festival will bring together an eclectic array of musicians including Leslie Lewis, Alien Chutney, Vir Das, Ankur Tewari and Sidd Coutto.
In this endeavour to showcase Indian talent in Sufi, rock and soul music, the organisers have not ignored their environmental commitment.
The power for the festival will be sourced from natural sources such as solar, bio-fuel and natural gas generators and on the festival grounds there will be recycle stations, compost stations and water stations where attendees can refill their water bags instead of wasting bottled water. Bio-degradable and edible cups will be used instead of regular plastic cups.
The festival organisers have also partnered with automobile major Maruti Suzuki, which will launch a special limited edition WindSong Swift car model as a part of its association.
