An overflowing audience cheered two titans of the East Indian cultural platform at the annual Mother’s Day show held at Centre of Excellence on Saturday night. They came to hear Indar Kanhai and Anil Bheem as they both shared the stage, at different times, and belted out some major hits. Bheem sang some of his favourites, including Yeh Jeevan Hai, Sarey Zamaney Pe and Aye Me Tujhe. Indar did no less and received overwhelming support from the crowd, which included hundreds of mothers.

 
 
Bheem was accompanied by his BMRZ Orchestra, while Kanhai was ably supported by his internationally-known  Trishul Indian Orchestra. Kanhai went back into the 1960s and 1970s and filled his presentations with songs by India’s greats—Mukesh, Rafi and Sona Nagum—belting out more than a dozen such renditions.
A major highlight of the evening show was the duet by Boya Shaffiat Ali and Nesha Mohammed, Mona My Darling, which sent the crowd rocking. There were supporting performances by Kavesh Maharaj, Nandlal Kanhai and Narindra Raghubir, dances by Extreme Breakers, and comedy by Kenneth Supersad.
