Signature Event Production and High-Energy Dance Sets
From massive festival stages in Queens to intimate club nights, here is a look at the energy I bring to every dance floor.
This is the moment it’s all for. Connecting with the community through music and movement is the heartbeat of every event I create. This is me in my element at a SummerStage show in Queens, feeling the energy from the crowd.
Basement Bhangra is more than a party, it's a legacy. This video captures the vibe of our "Basement Bhangra Beyond" festival, a full-scale production with live bands, dancers, and a massive crowd coming together to celebrate South Asian culture in the heart of Queens.
Collaboration is everything. Here I am on stage with the incredible Raja Kumari during a surprise performance at Basement Bhangra Bacchanal. I love curating lineups that bring together diverse, powerful artists to create one-of-a-kind moments.
Welcome to Bollywood Disco, where we celebrate filmi classics with a modern, eclectic groove. This is a glimpse into the pure joy and energy of the dance floor at one of our packed club nights. It's all about the shiny outfits and big smiles.
My events are proud and inclusive spaces. The "Bollywood Disco: Proud Edition" is an annual highlight, kicking off Pride month with a celebration of radical queer joy within the South Asian community. Everyone is welcome on my dance floor.
I bring legends to the stage. It was an honor to have the King of Bhangra, Malkit Singh, perform at Basement Bhangra Bacchanal. Curating events means I get to showcase both iconic and emerging talent from the global diaspora.
Nothing beats the energy of a New York crowd at sunset. This is the view from the stage at one of my free outdoor concerts in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. My event production focuses on creating these large-scale, accessible cultural experiences.
Behind the decks is where the magic starts. As a DJ and event producer, I'm hands-on with every detail, from the music selection to the final production, ensuring every party has the right vibe from start to finish.
About Featured
When you hire me, you aren't just getting a DJ; you are getting a complete event producer. I do not just mix tracks. I coordinate with sound engineers to ensure bass-heavy systems are tuned for the specific venue, manage artist riders, and select lineups that mix emerging talent with legendary performers. It is about building a seamless, high-energy flow where the sound design perfectly matches the cultural pulse of your event.
My approach to event design is about creating a space where the rhythm and the crowd become one. Whether I am producing a festival stage in Flushing Meadows Corona Park or a club takeover at The Sultan Room, the focus is on a high-fidelity experience. I handle everything from stage management and artist relations to working directly with venue engineers to ensure the bass hits right.
I run a strict no-request policy. This is not to be difficult, but to protect the musical journey I am building for the night. I mix classic Bhangra, retro Bollywood, and modern diaspora tracks in a way that respects the history of the music while keeping the floor moving. If you are looking for background music, I am not your DJ. If you are looking to build a movement, let's talk.
My work spans private galas, museum soundscapes, and large-scale public festivals. I bring my experience from Lincoln Center and other NYC cultural institutions to every project, ensuring that whether you are hosting 50 or 5000 people, the energy is intentional and the vibe is inclusive. My goal is to make every attendee feel like the Bollywood star they know they are.

I have been building inclusive, high-energy dance floors in NYC for over 20 years. Whether it is a massive outdoor festival or a boutique club night, my focus is always on connecting people through the power of South Asian sounds and diasporic rhythms. Let's make your next event a movement.
