Her repertoire spans Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, Assamese, and more — moving effortlessly between soaring Bollywood anthems and tender, melody-driven ballads that showcase her emotional depth as a singer.
Her artistry reached global recognition through her contribution to the Academy Award and Grammy-winning “Jai Ho” from Slumdog Millionaire, alongside collaborations with legendary composers like A. R. Rahman and Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy. Bringing her band to the stage, Mahalakshmi creates a live musical experience that bridges nostalgia and vibrancy, resonating with audiences across generations and languages.

Ankita Bhattacharya and Subhadeep Das Chowdhury are two of Bengal’s brightest rising talents, both having made their mark on the iconic singing reality show Sa Re Ga Ma Pa. Ankita captured hearts as the celebrated winner of Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Bangla 2019 — clinching the trophy at just 16 years old. Hailing from Dankuni, West Bengal, she has built a reputation for her versatile voice across both classical and contemporary tracks, lending her vocals to notable projects like the female version of the Projapati title track, and further showcasing her talent on stages like Indian Idol.
Subhadeep Das Chowdhury, hailing from Kolkata, first impressed audiences and celebrated judges like Shankar Mahadevan on Sa Re Ga Ma Pa before going on to become a highly praised finalist and runner-up on Indian Idol. He has since carved out a successful career in playback singing, lending his voice to viral hits including “Ishq Jalakar – Karvaan” from the film Dhurandhar.
Together, Ankita and Subhadeep bring the energy of reality-show stardom and the polish of professional playback careers to the stage — a perfect blend of youthful talent and growing Bollywood presence.
