Anirudh Ravichander’s ‘Anirudh XV – 15 Years With You’ tour reached Hyderabad on Saturday, drawing an estimated 30,000 to the Gachibowli Outdoor Stadium. The performance was delivered from an X-shaped stage, positioning the composer-singer in the center of the venue for a set spanning Tamil, Telugu, and Hindi tracks. Opening and closing with Aaya Sher, the 35-year-old composer used the track to frame a setlist of career hits. The program moved through tracks like Why This Kolaveri Di, Hukum, and Naa Ready, with a notable reception for Baitikochi Chuste.

The concert doubled up as a celebrity spot, with actor Nani attending alongside his wife Anjana Yelavarthy and their son Arjun, and director Srikanth Odela also present. Sitara Ghattamaneni, daughter of actor Mahesh Babu, was seen soaking in the atmosphere like any other fan, even joining chants of “Jai Babu.” On stage, Anirudh moved between older hits and recent chartbusters, drawing loud cheers. Singer Jonita Gandhi joined him for select tracks, while interactive moments like tossing merchandise and filming briefly on fans’ phones kept the audience engaged.
