A big THANK YOU to everyone for making the first-ever #StayHome with #BollywoodMonster Mashup 2020 a great success!
The largest South Asian festival in Canada, #StayHome with #BollywoodMonster Mashup, presented by TD Bank – The Ready Commitment, wrapped up its first virtual festival on July 24 and 25 attracting thousands to enjoy two live concerts that featured many amazing musical and dance performances along with special Kidz Hour activities.
This year’s international Bollywood headliners were Sunny Leone, Arjuna Harjai and the Meet Bros ft. Khushboo Grewal. On Friday, July 24, Arjuna Harjai made his first Canadian debut – virtually – as he performed his hit songs like “O Soniye” and “Choti Choti Gal” along with several other classic Bollywood songs. Harjai captivated the audience with his mesmerizing vocals and melodious renditions. The first night of the spectacular concert ended with back-to-back performances by fellow Canadian, Sunny Leone, who wowed the audience with her incredible dance moves. Following her performances, Leone joined hosts Uppekha Jain and Amin Dhillon for a one-on-one exclusive live video chat where she answered audience questions.
On July 25, the Meet Bros along with lead singer Khushboo Grewal, ended the two-day virtual festival with a hit performance. They performed their blockbuster songs such as “Main Tera Boyfriend” and “Lamborghini” along with various Bollywood and Punjabi hit numbers. In addition to the Bollywood stars, the July 24 show featured amazing performances by exceptional Canadian artists such as Giggle Queens, N2 The Band, Team NRITYA, The MAD Band Project, Reign Yash Dance Academy and Nick Pandya ft. Vedik Vibez. July 25th’s show featured another incredible lineup of both dance and music acts including BollyHeelsTO, #BollywoodMonster Orchestra ft.
