"I'm always excited about performing with new, young talent, and Neha, being a disciple of my favourite Pandit Birju Maharaj, makes this evening even more special for me. The whole theme of water will make this concert unique and we need to do everything to support and spread awareness about the vital issue of water co­nservati­on," Sivamani tells us. Banerjee adds, "I've been wanting to do a drums and kathak collaboration for a long time now. And as an artiste, I feel it's my responsibility to convey important messages through my craft."
