Mumbai, Oct 28 (NationPress) The Grammy Award-winning artist Enrique Iglesias is making his long-awaited return to India after a 13-year hiatus, just in time for his eagerly anticipated concert in Mumbai.
On Tuesday, the Spanish superstar was spotted at Mumbai Airport, dressed casually in a grey T-shirt, coordinating jogger-style trousers, a grey cap, and stylish black sunglasses.
The 'Hero' singer is scheduled to take the stage in the bustling city on October 30 at the MMRDA Grounds located in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex. Due to the overwhelming demand, with tickets for the October 30 concert selling out rapidly, the organizers have decided to add an additional show on October 29.
To recall, Iglesias first visited India in 2004 and returned in 2012.
In an exclusive interview with IANS, Iglesias expressed that returning to India has always been a significant goal for him.
He mentioned to IANS that “there was no hiatus,” explaining why now is the perfect moment for his return to the country.
He elaborated, “There was no hiatus; it just takes time between albums and touring in other countries to return. However, it has consistently been a priority to come back, and I couldn't be more excited.”
Highlighting India’s rise as a major player in the global music scene, the artist commented, “It was bound to happen, and I couldn’t be happier. India has such fantastic fans who show great respect and appreciation for music. I must also emphasize how incredible the audience is during my performances in India. The energy is extraordinary.”
During the discussion, Iglesias even teased a potential collaboration with an Indian artist.
When asked if he would consider collaborating with Indian musicians or integrating Indian sounds into his work, he replied, “I am always open to ideas, and you never know — it could already be in the works.”
