Father’s Day Frolics with Nikhita Gandhi 🎤👨👧
New Delhi: So, guess who stole the show on Father’s Day? None other than our melodious diva, Nikhita Gandhi! This songbird recently shared the stage with her dad, and let me tell you, it was nothing short of adorable. Picture this: Nikhita and her dad belting out the famous tune “Kolkata.” Yep, you heard that right. The queen of hits like “Qaafirana,” “Ullu Ka Pattha,” and “Jugnu” had a duet with her papa. Aww, isn’t that just the sweetest thing?
Nikhita gushed, "My dad and I sang Anupam Roy and Shreya Ghoshal’s hit song ‘Kolkata’ together. He’s a natural, you know." Natural, huh? Well, talent does run in the family, it seems.
From College Crooner to Stage Sensation 🎶
Nikhita, who hails from the City of Joy, Kolkata, revealed that her dad was quite the Kishore Kumar fan back in his college days. Imagine him serenading the college corridors with Kishore da’s classics! She credits her musical journey to her dad’s undying love for music. "He still sings for fun, sometimes even performs at various music events in Kolkata," she shared. Well, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree, did it?
