Multi-Grammy Award-winning singer Enrique Iglesias kicked off his largest-ever two-day concert in India on October 29, with a grand comeback to Mumbai. The singer returned to the country after 13 years. He captivated over 25,000 ecstatic fans. This event, which marked his first performance in Mumbai, took place at the MMRDA Grounds and featured a 90-minute, high-octane set that included 19 chart-topping hits and fan favorites from his illustrious career.
This sold-out event is Iglesias' third visit to India, following appearances in 2004 and 2012. Several popular Indian celebrities like Malaika Arora Khan, Vidya Balan, Rakul Preet Singh, Jaccky Bhanani, Rubina Dilaik, Anu Malik, Abhinav Shukla, Tina Dutta, Aditya Seal, Anushka Ranjan, Sonal Chauhan, Tanisha Mukherjee, Disha Parmar, Jai Bhanushali, Gurmeet Choudhary, Debina Bonnerjee, Elnaaz Norouzi, Orry Awatramani, Pragya Jaiswal, and Shriya Saran enjoyed the concert in Mumbai.
The 50-year-old singer known globally for chartbusters like Hero, Bailamos, and Tonight, enthralled the audience with his signature romantic hits and electric stage presence. Dressed in all-black with his trademark cap, he greeted the crowd with a warm “Namaste, Mumbai! Raise your hands!” before launching into a 90-minute set that left fans swaying and singing along.
From Subeme La Radio and Be With You to Cuando Me Enamoro and Bailando, the concert took the audience on a musical journey through the Spanish star’s greatest hits. “Thank you so much, I came here in 2004 first. It feels amazing to be back,” Iglesias told cheering fans.
However, the night of nostalgia and music at Iglesias’ live concert turned sour for several fans as more than 80 mobile phones worth nearly Rs 24 lakh were stolen.
