Nushrratt Bharuccha said, From the time Tsahi is landed everybody have asked us in every interview weather I have taken him around, showed him bombay, have I made him eat Indian food and I just thought that I have not taken him anywhere, he should see Bombay from my point of view.
So I took him to my favourite places which is Marin Drive because I went to college in Jai Hind and use to hangout there for hours and hours then I took him to NCA, I performed many shows there. He keeps singing one Hindi song that is Tuje Deka toh Jana Sanam so I took him to Maratha Mandir to show this is movie and it’s the oldest theatre. And ofcourse in Bombay I cannot make him eat Vadapav’s so took him to eat that with all the mirchi and masala and we went to gateway where I saw him Taj hotel and Gateway. Indeed it was a great day.
Tsahi Halevi commented,”I feel very privileged to be part of team Akelli and to have worked with such a talent as Nushrratt, more so having her take me on this tour in the beautiful city of Bombay definitely opened up my appetite to discover more of the beauty, colors, tastes , history and uniqueness of India .I’m Truly looking forward on enhancing this on growing cultural relationship between Israel and India and hoping to soon host Nushrratt and the Akelli team in my beautiful country”
