The Arabian Sangeet- Al-Maha Luxury Desert Resort & Spa
Complete with Reds, Purples and gorgeous Golds, this spectacular Sangeet showcased Arabic tents, a bar with a tree of Moroccan lanterns and so much more!
The walkway had a Handpan drummer, a sand bottle artiste, a calligraphy artiste, a falcon, a camel, a tamarind juice server and a coffee and dates server.
The entertainment was conceptualized like a Broadway show, with a Bedouin artiste, as the narrator of a love tale with Arabic acts and family performances interspersed within it. The enchanting Arabic acts were a vast array of belly dancers, tannoura dancers, fire and pixel poi artistes along with dancers dressed like desert animals. The arena then transformed into one with lasers as the DJs took over.
However, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan totally stole the show with a mind-blowing performance.
