Music festival | Rabbi Shergill on Lucknow's khuli hawa vs. Delhi's air pollution: You are lucky and should be thankful
SInger Rabbi Shergill mesmerised euphony lovers in Lucknow and uttered his hold for the city's fresher broadcast, a counterpoint to his hometown, Delhi. While the AQI in the national capital has been in the 350-400 plus range in some areas, Lucknow's levels, though above 200, are comparatively better.“Dilli and Lucknow are very similar as this city has an extension of Mughal culture. But, bahut hairani ki baat hai humein Dilli main saans nahi aati aur hum yahan khuli hawa mein saans le rehe hain!” said the singer. “So, Lucknowwallon, you should be thankful to your government and people. In Delhi, we are not able to move out of our rooms. We use two purifiers in our room, so you guys are very lucky,” Rabbi said after opening his act with the song Jugni during the Boho Musical Festival, held with support from HCL Concerts at Janeshwar Misra Park.He then presented the song Dil Se Dilli, which he dedicated to his “yaaron who have moved abroad”. He transported the audience with the Punjabi folk song Heer, explaining the love and pain in the tale, “which mirrors the life of Punjabis who look very happy from outside but beautifully hide the pain behind that smile.” This was followed by the love song Kitti Der Tak and the Dilli song. “Many people think I am from Amritsar. Yes, my ancestors were from Punjab, but I am a Dilliwala where I was born and brought up. Mujhe apne sheher se utna hi pyaar hai jitna aap ko apne sheher se hai. It’s the city that gave me awargi, which helped me become a songwriter. Traffic used to bother me, and I used to think meri jawani barbaad ho rahi hai, but usmein bhi apna maze. So, I wrote this song for the city that I love and that has made me,” said Rabbi. For his fans, he then presented Chhalla Vas Nahi Oo Mere, Bilqis (Jinhe Naaz Hai), and others. The event reached its crescendo as he performed Jab Tak Hai Jaan’s Challa, Delhii Heights’ Tere Bin Sanu Sohnia, and his chartbuster Bullah Ki Jaana.
