India's very first Jodi No1 perform LIVE in a musical extravaganza
for the launch of their maiden music album 'Jodi No 1'
After the grand success of the reality drama Fame Gurukul
on Sony Entertainment Television, India's first Jodi No 1, Ruprekha
Banerjee and Qazi Touqeer are ready to set the stage on fire with
their very first public performance in a LIVE concert on Friday,
11th November, at 7.30pm in Ravindra Natya Mandir. What started
off as a journey with fourteen contestants vying for the coveted
title of 'Fame Jodi' has now culminated into a dream of a lifetime
for the Jodi No 1, who are all set to make their first public performance
in the most electrifying and scintillating mega musical event of
the year.
The 'Junta's' hero, Qazi Touqeer is extremely excited about his
first concert and exclaimed, "The nation has stood by me through
my journey to the top - has wept with me when I had tears in my
eyes and laughed with me when I won the title. I am here on this
pedestal only because of my fans and I hope I will be able to live
up to their expectations."
Gurukul's favourite Ruprekha said, "I am really looking forward
to this concert because now we get an opportunity to give back the
country all the love and blessings they have showered on us. I am
really excited and wish I get more opportunities like these where
I get to be face to face with my fans. I will look to improve as
a singer and a performer with each of my show."
This mega musical event also witnesses the launch of Ruprekha and
Qazi's first music album 'JODI NO 1,' by Sony Music BMG. The Jodi
has reached this pinnacle of fame only after weeks and months of
struggle, harsh trials and tribulations. They now promise to set
the stage afire with brilliant singing and mind-blowing performances.
'Jodi No 1 In Concert' encapsulates some of the best performances
put together by the two, accompanied by never-before-seen performances
based on four original compositions from their first album Jodi
No 1."
Tarun Katial, executive vice president & business head, Sony
Entertainment Television, "Sony Entertainment Television through
its unique and innovative programming constantly works towards providing
a platform for the budding talent of this country and helping them
make their dream come true. I am very happy to bring back the duo
for their first public performance, keeping up to our promise of
providing the country with a 'Jodi No 1' who will entertain them."
On the occasion, Shridhar Subramaniam, Managing Director, Sony
BMG Music said, "Through Fame Gurukul, we have once again seen
the involvement of the nation in choosing their own superstars.
The fans await Qazi & Ruprekha's debut album - Jodi No.1 with
lyrics penned by Sameer and music composed by Prempal Hans &
Hardip Sidhu, with bated breath, and we are sure it will be a phenomenal
success!"
