Event Description

Experience an intimate evening of evocative acoustic music with Sanjay Divecha, one of India’s most celebrated guitarists. Leela is a deeply personal collection of compositions performed on steel and nylon string guitar, a reflection of Divecha’s artistic journey and spiritual introspection.

Rooted in spontaneity and guided by an unwavering belief in the oneness of all things, the music of Leela draws from Divecha’s vast experience across genres and geographies. The performance promises not just technical brilliance but an emotional, meditative space where the guitar becomes a storyteller.

This is a rare opportunity to witness the quiet power of acoustic expression from an artist whose work resonates with honesty, playfulness, and depth, much like the divine Leela itself.
