Mumbai, 21st September, 2015: Music can build relationships and bring the entire world together. And the one entity which has managed just that is, undoubtedly, T-Series. Recognizing their contribution to the world of Indian music, COLORS has joined hands with the music giant to put together a tribute concert celebrating the illustrious life and works of the man behind the establishment called Suron Ke Rang - Salaam Shri Gulshan Kumar. The concert is the first property developed under COLORS’ Suron Ke Rang – COLORS Ke Sang musical property and will bring together over 30 musical stalwarts and more than 60 popular and unique compositions across three decades. Sonu Nigam, Mika, Shaan, Meet Brothers, Mithoon, Jeet Ganguly, Tulsi Kumar, Arman Malik and guest host Ayushmann Khurrana were present to announce the details of the concert, conceptualized and produced by Kickstart Entertainment, which will be held on 22nd September, 2015 and will air on COLORS later this year.
