Dharavi.org Party

A spectacular end to a week long search for music in Dharavi, brought together the music of Bappi Lahiri, Paul Devro, the South Dandy Squad and new found singers - Geetesh, Amruta, Shubam, Gunjalam and Aditya.

When asked by Indian Exposure if they would soon rap about their exprience working with Paul Devro and Dharavi.org, the South Dandy Squad affirmed their involvement with the project  "respect to Dharavi.org, one song is there in our album, we are writing the lyrics for that, we will be doing it."

The event attracted, not only the communities attention but also the attention of the press who covered the ongoing research of Dharavi.org, Heaps Decent's India project headed by Paul Devro and the announcement of Bappi Lahiri's new album - Slum Stars - featuring five young singers from Dharavi.

For Bappi Lahiri this was a chance to find new talent  "I think its a big big break for these children. I think we will get beautiful talent here."

And sure enough the energy and impact of the event is evident in what Mrs. Kiran Khandhare ( Aditya's mother had to say) "I always knew my son could sing. He would sing along to songs playing on the TV and Radio, but for him to sing with Bappi Lahiri is a dream."
