“We are also in negotiations with Indian TV channels to telecast the show in US soon besides talking to different TV channels across the globe for showing it to the South Asian Community in different countries. This is just one step in our endeavor to reach the Asian community across the globe.
In fact we aim to make the WBC an annual affair traveling across the globe with a different city hosting every year.” added Raheja.

The Future of WORLD BHANGRA CONCERT
It will be a brand promoted by Brilliant Entertainment Networks across the world. With the reach of Television and satellite network, we plan to reach the Indian community across the globe. Infact the endeavor will be to make the Indian music reach far and wide to different parts of the world through a Music Album and Special Videos and DVDs.
As we move on, we intend to create it as content for Radio Channels as well. This would be unique as Radio is not conventionally used to showcase Live Music Concerts.
With other medias like 3G technologies etc, developing fast, Live concerts and performances will be our key focus for promoting it as content.
