Percept Live in partnership with Laqshya Media Group present Bollyboom’s ‘Chak De India Tour’ with Salim-Sulaiman
The first phase of the tour kicks off on March 21, 2026, taking the electrifying experience across Jaipur, Lucknow, Indore, Pune, and Ahmedabad. Additional cities and venues for Phase Two will be announced soon, promising an even wider nationwide footprint.
Bollyboom’s journey began over two decades ago as Bollywood Live, conceived alongside Sunburn when India’s live music culture was just taking shape. While Sunburn went on to define the country’s EDM movement, Bollywood Live evolved into Bollyboom – a bold platform that reimagined Bollywood and Indian music as a high-energy, dance-led live experience. Bollyboom moved beyond conventional concerts to fuse iconic film music with electronic and club sounds, immersive visuals and arena-scale production pan-India and overseas.

A Legacy 33 Years in the Making
For over three decades, Salim-Sulaiman have been the heartbeat of contemporary Indian music, creating anthems that transcend cinema, language, and time. Salim-Sulaiman’s work has reached millions of listeners worldwide, powered by a live career spanning hundreds of shows across India, Europe, North America, Australia, and the Middle East. A landmark moment came at the FIFA World Cup, where they became the only Indian artists to compose and perform, playing live to tens of thousands in the stadium and a global TV audience running into the millions. Alongside global collaborations including Lady Gaga, their excellence has been recognized with multiple Filmfare Awards and major industry honours, firmly establishing them as one of India’s most successful and internationally visible music composer duos.
Timed to align with the festive spirit sweeping the country, the ‘Chak De India Tour’ promises a deeply immersive, emotionally charged celebration of joy, nostalgia, and togetherness – values that have been at the core of their music for 33 glorious years.
