Mumbai, you’re officially up. After electrifying Delhi on November 9th and Bengaluru on November 14th, Akon is bringing his 3-city India tour to a close tomorrow, and this is your only shot to be part of it. If the videos flooding Instagram from the first two shows are anything to go by, you’re in for the night of your life.
Why Seeing Akon Live Is So Special
Think back to when sharing songs meant Bluetooth transfers and flip phones. When Right Now (Na Na Na) was the anthem blasting through every college fest speaker and house party. When Bananza (Belly Dancer) had everyone attempting those moves on the dance floor. And who could forget discovering Akon through Chammak Challo in Ra.One – that moment Shah Rukh Khan and Akon gave us a Bollywood crossover we didn’t know we needed but absolutely deserved?
For an entire generation, Akon’s voice is the soundtrack. Whether it was crying to Lonely during teenage heartbreaks or hyping yourself up with Smack That before a night out, his music hit different. Clubs across the country still blast his tracks today. And now, after all these years, we finally get to experience these songs live, sung back to the man who gave them to us.
A Glimpse Into What’s Coming Your Way
Still on the fence? Let these fan moments do the talking. Check out this clip from Delhi where the entire crowd is singing along word-for-word, the energy is absolutely insane. And Akon himself shared this moment from the tour showing exactly what Mumbai is about to witness tomorrow.
The setlist? Pure hits. Smack That, Lonely, Right Now, Don’t Matter, I Wanna Love You, Bananza, Beautiful, Ghetto – and of course, the show-stopping surprise when Akon performed Chammak Challo live with Hamsika Iyer, making it an unforgettable moment. Fans at the Delhi show perfectly captured it: “This concert took me back to my college days with the same songs, the same energy, and the same Akon.”
Why India Means Everything To Akon
Here’s something special, Akon calls India his “second home” and refers to Indian fans as his “family.” During the Delhi show, he took a moment to tell the roaring crowd just how much this connection means to him. And it’s not just talk. From collaborating with Shah Rukh Khan on Chammak Challo (which became a nightclub staple and one of the most downloaded songs in India) to performing at the Ambani pre-wedding celebrations earlier this year, Akon has consistently shown his love for Indian culture and music.
He’s even expressed interest in more Bollywood projects and has talked about how Indian artists are getting the global recognition they deserve. This tour feels like a homecoming, and the emotion in both Delhi and Bengaluru proved it – when he sang Chammak Challo with Hamsika Iyer, the entire stadium erupted in chants of “Akon! Akon!”
The Production Is Next-Level
Expect a full-scale experience tomorrow. We’re talking massive LED screens displaying stunning visuals, laser lights synced to every beat, pyrotechnics that’ll light up the sky, and a sound system that’ll make sure you feel every bass drop in your chest. The stage production for this tour has been designed to match Akon’s global concert standards, the kind of show that makes you understand why he’s sold over 35 million albums worldwide.
The NESCO Centre is known for its excellent acoustics and state-of-the-art facilities, so whether you’re in the front row or further back, you’re getting premium sound quality. Add in Akon’s natural stage presence, his interaction with fans, and that infectious energy he brings – Mumbai is in for an unforgettable night.

Akon’s Closing Out An Unforgettable Tour With An Epic Show
Here’s the deal: Tomorrow is it. The last show of Akon’s 3-city India tour. Once he wraps in Mumbai, that’s the end of this run. Delhi’s done, Bengaluru’s done, and after tomorrow – the tour’s complete. No other cities, no encore dates announced.
Being the final show, you can expect Akon to turn up the heat and go all out – and maybe give the crowd a few surprises that Delhi or Bengaluru didn’t get to see, making it a can’t miss experience.
So round up your squad, charge your phones (you’ll want to capture every second), and get ready to sing your lungs out tomorrow night. Whether you discovered Akon through Ra.One, grew up with him dominating MTV, or just need to hear Right Now live before you can die happy… tomorrow is your moment!
Mumbai, this is the concert you’ll be talking about for years. Don’t miss it.
