Kailasa,
the
Mumbai-based
band
is
going
places,
literally.
It
is
more
famous
for
its
lead
singer
hema
malini,kailash
kher,kumaran
son
of
mahalakshmi,
who
has
carved
a
niche
for
himself
as
a
leading
playback
singer.
But
the
band
is
also
flourishing.
Its
latest
conquest
was
a
rocking
performance
at
the
recent
Kumbh
Mela.
Kumbh
Mela
2010
began
at
Haridwar
on
14th
January
and
will
continue
till
28th
April.
Kumbh
Mela
2010
is
special
as
it
once
in
144
years
that
this
Kumbh
Mela
is
held.
This
year
saw
scores
of
devotees
flocking
to
pay
their
respects.
Several
artistes
were
invited
to
perform
at
Sawr
Ganga,
the
cultural
function
of
Maha
Kumbh.
Kailasa,
whose
music
is
mostly
a
fusion
of
classical,
pop
&
sufi,
performed
at
the
same.
Hema
Malini
also
performed
a
classical
dance
piece
at
the
same
function
The
band
comprises
of
Paresh
and
Naresh
Kamath
and
others,
besides
Kailash.
They
have
albums
like
Kailasa
and
Jhoomo
Re
and
have
performed
to
a
crowd
of
over
one
crore
devotees.
The
band
has
performed
to
huge
crowds
before
but
this
experience
was
something
else
altogether.
Reportedly,
the
journey
to
get
there
itself
was
spectacular.
They
drove
down
through
a
picturesque
route
and
were
given
a
police
escort
into
the
city.
Their
gig
was
a
major
success,
especially
Kailash
rendition
of
Jaana
Jogi
De
Nall.
The
band
also
dedicated
their
performance
of
Babam
Bam
Lahiri
to
Lord
Shiva.
All
in
all,
it
was
a
truly
memorable
experience,
for
both
the
devotees
and
the
band
members!
