An Evening with MLTR: A Nostalgic Night in Gurugram

By -

On the evening of 22nd February, we had the chance to attend the much-awaited Michael Learns to Rock (MLTR) concert at the Gurugram Gymkhana Club, and it turned out to be a memorable night filled with nostalgia, sing-alongs, and timeless music.

One of the best parts of the experience was the convenience. The venue was within walking distance from where we were staying, which made getting there completely stress-free. As we approached the venue, the crowd was already buzzing with excitement, but the entry process was smooth and well organized, allowing everyone to get in without unnecessary delays. Our tickets were in the Blue Night section, which offered decent visibility of the stage, making it easy to fully enjoy the performance.

The evening began with the opening act by Neyhal. Unfortunately, the performance didn’t quite set the tone for the night. The energy felt a bit flat and the set didn’t really build the excitement that a concert opener ideally should. With a band like MLTR scheduled to perform, the audience was clearly eager for the main act.

Thankfully, once MLTR took the stage, everything changed.

The band made a classy entrance, starting their show at around 8:10 PM, about 10 minutes later than scheduled. From the moment they began, the atmosphere transformed. Their performance immediately connected with the audience, bringing back waves of nostalgia for fans who had grown up listening to their music.

They delivered all their iconic hits, and the crowd responded with incredible enthusiasm. For the most popular songs, something magical happened, the audience practically took over the singing, with thousands of voices joining together. It created a beautiful shared moment between the band and the fans.

The band members also made an effort to engage with the crowd throughout the show, talking to the audience and even walking down closer to interact with fans, which added a personal touch to the experience. Their stage presence was warm and effortless, and it was clear they genuinely enjoyed performing.

Song after song, MLTR mesmerized the audience, proving that their music still carries the same emotional power it always has. The vibe in the venue was simply wonderful — a mix of nostalgia, joy, and collective singing that made the night feel special.

By the end of the concert, it was clear that MLTR had delivered exactly what fans came for: timeless songs, heartfelt performances, and a truly memorable live experience.

A perfect night of music — and one that will stay with us for a long time to come.

Bhramaram - Malayalam movie review

There are few film makers in malayalam cinema whose movies ,more often than not ,are often waited with baited breath by cine goers across the state.The sense of anticipation and excitement that their movies evoke are immense which usually turn out to be a bane for these supremely gifted artists.Blessy has been a victim of such frenzied responses in the past and after the recent debacle, where his last two movies turned out to be damp squibs, it was imperative from his part to come up with something appreciable in order to salvage his reputation and provide a befitting reply to his critics.Well then, Has he been successful in this attempt or is his latest endeavour an another flash in the pan?The movie, 'Bhramaram', which draws its inspiration from a Malayalam classic, (Revealing its name may spoil the party!) has lived up to its expectations and, by the end of the year, could well be labelled as the best malayalam movie of 2009( Sorry! Director Lal ). Set in the backdrop of a...

All Hearts Tour by Shreya Ghoshal: A Long Evening of Music

By -
Getting Ready The All Hearts Tour by Shreya Ghoshal, on 30th November at LB Stadium in Hyderabad was a concert to look forward to. Our first experience of a Shreya Ghoshal concert, we took a less tiring approach to travelling by metro to the concert, avoiding the traffic induced pressure, anxieties and long waits. Travel by metro was a breeze. For the concert scheduled to start at 7 PM, we reached the stadium around 6:15 PM. The stadium was a short walk from the “Assembly” metro station. At the stadium, quickly headed to the ticket counters to gather the wrist band for entry into the designated viewing areas. A gold class ticket with seating that cost Rs.2,300/ticket, was too far from the stage, though the viewing area was within the grounds and not the stadium seating (which was silver). The stadium facilities were inadequate, with temporary outdoor toilets and a limited selection of overpriced snacks (a small popcorn bowl for Rs. 200).  Concert The concert started around 40 minut...
