shakira performs at birthday party in india

[Exclusive Pictures] Shakira cast her spell in Udaipur’s atmosphere

Real estate tycoon KP Singh's birthday bash took place on Tuesday night at Udaipur's Jagmandir, an island on Lake Pichola, and it was a night to remember.
On Monday, there was a strong buzz that Columbian pop star Shakira would be coming to India, but the Latino singer will not perform at the DLF honcho's birthday celebrations, and simply meet adolescent girls from impoverished parts of Udaipur as a UNICEF Goodwill ambassador instead.
However, the buzz came to naught on Tuesday night. The evening started with Pakistani singer Adnan Sami's performance. The party kick-started at 8pm, and was hosted by the dapper Kabir Bedi. Quite obviously, Bedi introduced KP Singh and after wishing him all the love and luck and making him cut his birthday cake, singer Adnan Sami took to the stage and mesmerised the guests with his redntion of one of his popular songs, "Kabhi toh nazaar milaao". Sami entertained the guests for an hour and soon after his performance, Bedi gave a 10-minute long welcome speech for the "Waka Waka" star, Shakira. After the welcome note, there was pitch darkness and a few minutes later, the Latino singer took to the stage at 9pm. Dressed in a golden top, she stole the crowd's attention with her opening remark, "I love Udaipur and this is my second visit to the city. I think this is the most beautiful city in the world."

Standing amidst the peaceful water of Pichola, Jag Mandir was glowing under a dim blue light that got hold of every eye, leaving everyone mesmerized with its elegancy. Guests and celebrities were comforted with the luxurious preparations that were made under the head of Piya Singh, daughter of Mr. Singh.  The Guest list listed many popular faces including Adnan Sami, Sunil Mittal, Kabir Bedi, Pawan Kumar Munjal, and of course the most awaited of all Latin Pop Star Shakira. A 15 feet high stage was set up which was flooded with decorative lights and flowers. Colourful floating Fountains were placed in Pichola that took the breath of guests and also of Udaipurites who were standing at the ‘Paal’. A huge balloon was revolving above Pichola Lake from which beautiful angels landed up rendering everyone hypnotized. Crackers worth 2 Crores were brought but Collector Mr. Gera and the administration didn’t give permission for late night fireworks.

Being the Brand Ambassador of UNICEF, Waka Waka girl Shakira also visited SIERT where she met the rural girls and motivated them to get educated and achieve high positions in the society. When she reached at the place, small girls dressed in traditional ‘Lehangas’ welcomed her according to Rajasthani Culture. Despite of being such a famous celebrity, she easily got mixed up with the school girls. She even danced with them and answered each and every question very politely. Girls also sang many folk songs for Shakira and Shakira also encouraged them by clapping and dancing with them.
