Youth danced to the songs of Arshpreet and Rajesh Tyagi at Rajgarh fair
The second cultural evening of the district-level Baisakhi fair featured renowned Punjabi singer Arshpreet, a Himachali couple, and Pahari folk singer Rajesh Tyagi. Bollywood singer Amit Kumar failed to impress the audience. He was the most prominent playback singer of the cultural evening. He was invited on stage at 9:30 p.m. He began with the Punjabi song “Mitran Di Chhatri Ud Gayi,” but failed to deliver the song in his powerful Punjabi voice, and people began leaving the pandal. However, he sang other Hindi songs, including “Mae Ni Meriye Shimla Di Rahe Chamba Kitni Door,” and other Pahari songs. Therefore, Amit Kumar’s performance was not well-received by the audience.
Before this, Arshpreet sang songs like Damadam Mast Kalandar, Jugni and other fast beat songs which created an atmosphere of dancing among the youth. Similarly, the audience enjoyed dancing to one of the best Pahadi Naatis performed by Rajesh Tyagi, Himachali Jodi, Rameshwar Sharma, Suman Soni, Shakuntala Tanwar, Ramesh Katoch, Sonu Bhardwaj, Vidya Datt Dhalta and others. The entire pandal was filled with joy on the famous Pahadi Naati Basi Goi Dil Di Mere Pyariye- Hai Re Meriye Jaunsariye by Rajesh Tyagi.
Himachal Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation Chairman R.S. Bali attended the second cultural evening as the chief guest. Congress leader Dayal Pyari and Sirmaur Additional Superintendent of Police Yogesh Rolta were present as special guests. Fair Committee Chairman and SDM Rajgarh Rajkumar Thakur honored the chief guest and special guests by presenting them with shawls, Himachali caps, and mementos.
On this occasion, RS Bali said in his address that fairs and festivals are indicative of the rich cultural heritage of the state, through their organization, people get an opportunity to meet each other, at the same time, by preserving and promoting the culture through such events, people get an opportunity to connect with their past and a feeling of love, goodwill and mutual cooperation is generated among the people, which strengthens the unity and integrity of the nation.
