Plenty to cheer about…in Singapore
Rajiv Sebastian has been to Singapore many times, on work-related matters, but his first, as a performer, turned out to be exciting, and memorable, as well, and it all happened last month.
Yes, it all happened on 11th September, 2022 – the day Rajiv went into action at the Gabbar Bistro and Bar, in Singapore.
According to Rajiv, it was an action-packed night, with the large crowd present having a good time, singing along with the legendary singer, as well, and then making use of the dance floor, during the final session.
Rajiv was backed by the band 404, made up of Sri Lankans, based in Singapore.
‘70s Night with Rajiv’ commenced at 6.30 pm and ended at 10 pm to enable the guests to take in the Asia Cup T20 finals.
It was an evening they had plenty to cheer about!
Rajiv spent five days, in the ‘Lion City’ and also visited Universal Studio, in Singapore.
Back home, he had quite a lot of work, lined up for him – family nights, sing-along events, etc. – and continues to be busy, as a performer.
Rajiv worked on the Concert DVD, ‘Tribute To The Legendary Clarence Wijewardena,’ which contains 50 songs, and is now available.
Cricket special from Rajiv (and
Sohan) for T20 World Cup
This special DVD is in commemoration of Clarence’s 25th death anniversary which fell on 13th December, 2021.
Recorded live at Nelum Pokuna Theatre, on 13th December, 2021, the DVD features 25 singers, including Annesley Malawana, Indrani Perera, Dezmond Rodrigo, Lilanthi Mendis, Chandani Hettiarachchi, Punsiri Soysa, Shyami Ratnam, Ranil Mallawarachchi, Lankika Perera, Anu Nandasiri, Vernon Perera, Tisara Fernando, George Senanayake, and Rajiv himself.

Says Sohan: “It was lovely working on a joint project with Rajiv, and I am hoping cricket lovers, in this country, will play it, during the T20 World Cup.”
