Shweta Pandit: “Meeting Hugh was one of my most cherished moments.”

One of the few lucky ladies to get up-close and personal with Aussie heartthrob, Hugh Jackman, when he was in India a few months ago, was Filmfare Award winning singer, Shweta Pandit.

Shweta says, “I was introduced to Mr. Jackman, at the Four Seasons Hotel before he departed Mumbai. We spoke about music, his own singing talent, and my Bollywood singing journey.”

“Hugh mentioned that he heard of the AR Rahman – Jai Ho Concert at the Sydney Festival last year, where I performed as well, to a crowd of eighty-thousand people,”

she adds.

Those of you visiting or living in the USA can catch Hugh Jackman performing in his own Broadway show from 10th November onwards. “Some of my friends are also working with him backstage and I would love to sing a duet with him on stage someday, that will truly be my biggest high on stage,” she smiles.

Make sure you take us backstage when you do get that opportunity, Shweta!
