Grammy-Winning Pop Star Shakira to Return to India After 19 Years for Charity Concerts

Mumbai. World-renowned pop singer and multi-Grammy Award winner Shakira is set to visit India in April after a gap of 19 years. According to 'Feeding India' and 'District by Zomato', Shakira's live performances in Mumbai on April 10 and in Delhi on April 15 have been confirmed.

She previously held a grand concert in Mumbai in 2007 during her 'Oral Fixation' tour. Her fans across South Asia are showing great excitement for this tour, which is happening after a long interval.

This concert is not limited to mere entertainment but is being organized with a social purpose. The non-profit organization 'Feeding India' is hosting this event to support the campaign against hunger and malnutrition. Shakira will perform her famous songs at the Mahalaxmi Race Course in Mumbai and the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi. In a press note, Shakira stated that performing in India is always special for her, and she is excited to raise her voice for child nutrition.

Shakira, who gained worldwide fame with hits like "Hips Don't Lie," "Whenever, Wherever," and the official FIFA World Cup song "Waka Waka," is known for her energetic stage performances. Besides music, she has been working for education and child welfare through her own 'Barefoot Foundation'. As her social work aligns with the goals of 'Feeding India', this concert is being viewed as a significant step towards contributing to the United Nations' 'Zero Hunger 2030' goal.
