Pankaj Udhas, a superstar singer in the Indian music industry, has been known to bring tears to his listeners' eyes with his emotive, smooth and melancholic singing accompanied by the Ghazal style music.

The Ghazal maestro had performed in Malaysia about a decade ago.

The organiser expects to draw a larger crowd this time as Udhas’ three-hour long concert will be held during the Chinese New Year break and in a bigger venue.  

Udhas is scheduled to perform at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre’s Plenary Hall at 7.30 pm on 10 February.

 

He ​released his first ghazal album Aahat in 1980 but shot to fame for singing "Chitthi Aayee Hai" in the 1986 film Naam.

 

 

​Udhas has performed as a playback singer for numerous films. He has recorded many albums and toured the world as an accomplished ghazal singer.

 

To date, Udhas has released over 50 albums and hundreds of compilation albums as well as performing in live concert tours.

The concert is organised by Hitman Solutions and GHC Solutions, which were also responsible for bringing luminary stars as Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Sonu Niigaam, Imran Khan and Master Saleem.
