UK audiences described the concert as “unlike anything they had ever seen.” Australian audiences can expect a kaleidoscope of colour, 80s fashion, pop culture and incredible dancing from the performers.
Mithun Chakraborty, the lead actor of the original film said, “I got goosebumps, I just relived my film once again… Live On Stage”.
Popcorn Entertainment’s Suniel Shetty had similar glowing reports, stating that “The film was a cult classic, but the talent displayed on stage was outstanding”.

However, he soon becomes a famous performer, but enemies from his past try to destroy his hard-earned career.
