It was surreal, magical, dreamy — everything an artist wants,” says Paresh Pahuja, speaking about his weekend gig in Bengaluru as part of his Love Notes tour. “The connection was so pure. The city showed up — singing along, dancing, even crying with me. It was a full gamut of emotions, the whole experience of being human. It was beautiful,” he says. For Paresh, the night felt deeply intimate. “I had the best time of my life. I curated a very special setlist for Bengaluru. It felt like going on a date — it had all the elements of a perfect date night,” he says, adding that he hopes the audience felt just as special.Sharing what the tour means to him, he says, “Love Notes is everything to me. It’s the most personal thing I’m putting out. It’s based on everything I feel and believe about love — all kinds of love. It’s more a feeling than anything else. There’s poetry, music, and a lot of me in it. My soul and heart are in it, and I try to present it in the most real and raw way possible.”Paresh Pahuja’s setlist:MascaraDooron DooronKaari KaariBotalaanAur Kya ChahiyeKitni DafaaSoch KeIshq
