Frequently asked questions

Hiring Indian / Bollywood entertainment typically costs between $150 and $2,300+, with an average of $700. Cost depends on the number of performers, performance duration and the style of the act. Indian and Bollywood entertainment ranges from solo musicians and vocalists to full ensembles with dancers, dhol drummers and live bands.

The Bollywood acts on Gig Heaven include Bollywood dancers, dhol drummers, sitar and tabla players, Bollywood DJs, live Bollywood bands and fusion acts that blend traditional Indian music with modern styles. Many suppliers can combine several of these elements into a single package for a more complete experience.

Hiring Indian / Bollywood entertainment suits a wide range of events including weddings, mehndi nights, sangeet parties, Diwali celebrations, corporate events and multicultural festivals. The vibrant colours, rhythms and energy of Bollywood entertainment make a strong impression on guests.

Many Bollywood acts offer combined packages including dhol drummers for the entrance, dancers for the reception and a DJ or live band for the party. This keeps the entertainment running smoothly throughout the event. It is advisable to discuss package options with the performers.

Singers are among the most requested acts and cover playback-style Bollywood numbers, ghazals, bhajans and regional-language songs. Some perform with a live group and others with recorded backing, and many will take requests for particular films or eras. Saying which languages and which decades matter most gives the clearest brief.

Indian weddings often run across several events, and different acts are commonly booked for each: a dhol group for the baraat, singers or a live band for the sangeet, and a DJ for the reception. Suppliers who cover more than one of these will quote for the whole run. Setting out the schedule when enquiring usually gets a better price than booking each piece separately.

Many acts work well beyond the Hindi film repertoire and cover Punjabi, Tamil, Gujarati, Bengali and other regional traditions. Bhangra and garba are frequently requested alongside film numbers. Naming the tradition when enquiring matters more than naming a song, as it decides which performers are the right fit.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
