Kailash Kher and Kailasa make it a memorable night for Dimapur

Performing for over a thousand crowd at the DDSC stadium, Kailash Kher and his band Kailasa enthralled the Dimapur crowd on Saturday night with their Indian folk and Sufi music. The almost-filled stadium not only sang along but danced to Kailash and Kailasa’s music as he bellowed ‘Hornbill’ ‘Dimapur’ and ‘Nagaland’ while performing on stage. It was their first performance in Nagaland and Kailash called himself a ‘local’ for the night as he came out decked in fashionable western outfit, for which Nagas are generally known, also received loud cheers from the crowd. Not leaving a chance to show his humorous side, the ‘Saiyaan’ and ‘Tu Jaane na’ hit-maker entertainingly told the crowd he had been invited on several occasions to perform in Nagaland but time, date and money prevented him to taking on the invitation (in jest). It would be a night for Dimapurians to cherish witnessing the distinct Indian folk music and Sufi music band performing at Hornbill International Music Festival (HIMF) 2016.
