ABsMelodies – Bollywood Singer Dubai-based Bollywood singer | Retro classics, romantic melodies & ghazals

I require a clear, safe performance area, a nearby power socket and a small table or stand for my laptop. The client or venue should provide a sound system suitable for the audience size, a microphone and a compatible connection for playing backing tracks from my laptop, unless otherwise agreed.

Please allow access before the performance for setup and a sound check. For outdoor events, the performance area and electrical equipment must be sheltered from sun, rain and moisture.

Please share the venue location, expected guest numbers, whether the event is indoors or outdoors, and details of the available sound system and microphones.

I also need the setup access time, performance timings, parking or unloading arrangements, and any stairs or access restrictions. Please advise of any volume limits, music curfew or venue rules affecting the performance. If the venue has a sound technician, it is helpful to coordinate the audio connections with them in advance.

Yes, I bring my own PA system with two microphones, along with my laptop and professional backing tracks. For larger events, additional sound equipment may be required from the client or venue, depending on the space and guest numbers. Any required lighting should be provided by the client or venue. I’m happy to coordinate with your sound technician in advance to confirm compatibility and setup requirements.

Yes, I can play curated Bollywood, retro and party playlists before and between my live singing sets, using the venue’s sound system. Playlists can be tailored to your audience, with favourite songs discussed in advance. This is a playlist playback service rather than a dedicated live DJ mixing performance. Extended music playback after my sets can be agreed when booking.

One of my most memorable performances was for a private celebration at Address Montgomerie in Emirates Hills, Dubai. The elegant setting suited an evening of Bollywood classics and romantic melodies, and the host’s lovely feedback made it particularly rewarding. For me, a great gig is about creating a connection with the guests and adding something special to their celebration.

I especially enjoy house parties, birthdays, anniversaries and intimate mehfil-style evenings. These gatherings give me the opportunity to connect with guests, share the nostalgia of Bollywood classics and ghazals, and encourage spontaneous sing-along moments. There’s something special about seeing a familiar song bring everyone together.

My love for Bollywood melodies and ghazals inspired me to develop ABsMelodies. My performance experience includes private celebrations, house parties and community gatherings, bringing together retro classics, romantic favourites and audience interaction. Personal connections and word-of-mouth referrals have helped me find opportunities to perform. I tailor my song choices to the occasion, creating relaxed dinner music or a lively sing-along atmosphere.

Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi and Jagjit Singh are my strongest musical influences. I admire Kishore Kumar’s versatility and expression, Mohammed Rafi’s range and grace, and Jagjit Singh’s ability to convey deep emotion so naturally.

Kishore Kumar is a particular favourite. If I had to choose one timeless song, it would be “Aane Wala Pal Jaane Wala Hai”—a beautiful combination of melody, meaning and heartfelt singing.

I usually allow 45–60 minutes before the performance to connect my laptop to the venue’s sound system and complete a sound check. Typical bookings include a 60-minute performance or two to three 45-minute sets with agreed breaks. Set lengths and timings can be tailored to your event schedule and are confirmed before booking.

Yes, provided there is a safe, dry and sheltered performance area with a suitable power supply. Shade and protection from rain, wind and moisture are required for both myself and the sound equipment. Outdoor performances depend on suitable weather and temperature, with an indoor alternative agreed where needed.

Absolutely! Clients are welcome to choose favourites from my repertoire, suggest preferred artists and share any must-play or avoid songs. I build the set around your audience and the atmosphere you want. Requests outside my usual repertoire can be discussed in advance, subject to preparation time and suitable backing-track availability. On-the-day requests are welcome where possible.

Feedback I’ve received has highlighted enjoyable singing and a professional approach. One host at a private celebration in Emirates Hills said they enjoyed the songs and described us as “very professional.” I aim to bring that same warmth, care and personal attention to every event.

An evening of familiar favourites, soulful singing and moments to sing along together. I specialise in retro Bollywood classics, romantic melodies and ghazals, tailoring the music to your guests and occasion—from a relaxed dinner to a lively celebration.

I perform live vocals with professional backing tracks and can bring my PA system with two microphones, subject to the venue’s requirements. Hosting, audience games and party playlists can also be included by prior arrangement.
