Rahul Vaidya Becomes First Singer to Perform at Lalbaugcha Raja in 91 Years


In a moment of spiritual and cultural significance, renowned Indian singer Rahul Vaidya has achieved a historic milestone by becoming the first artist in 91 years to perform live at the revered Lalbaugcha Raja in Mumbai. This performance is scheduled for August 27, 2025, on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi, marking an emotional high in both his personal and professional journey.

Known for his deep devotion to Lord Ganesha, Rahul has brought Ganpati Bappa home every year. However, this year is even more special. Not only is he welcoming Bappa into his home, but he will also sing in the spiritual heart of Mumbai’s Ganesh festivities.

Rahul will present his latest devotional track, ‘Sukhkarta X Jai Jai Ganesha’, a powerful fusion that pays homage to Lord Ganesha, along with a selection of 6–7 traditional bhajans. Speaking about the performance, he shared:

“This is the most blessed stage I’ve ever performed on. I’ve done many concerts, but this one is incredibly special. Lalbaugcha Raja is more than just a pandal—it’s a divine experience.”

The singer emphasized that the entire performance will carry a traditional and cultural essence, staying true to the devotional spirit of the festival. From the setlist to his Indian attire, every detail has been crafted to honor the occasion.

Rahul Vaidya, who rose to fame as the second runner-up of Indian Idol Season 1, has since carved a successful career in both playback singing and live performances. His recent appearances on Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 11 and Laughter Chefs showcased his versatility and charisma.

Reflecting on this opportunity, Rahul said:

“There are many performances in life, but this one will stay with me forever.”

This historic performance at Lalbaugcha Raja not only marks a career highlight for Rahul Vaidya but also sets a new precedent for devotional music being celebrated on such a grand, traditional stage.
