R&B superstar Akon is all set to mesmerise his fan in India with his maiden concert this April.
The Smack that hitmaker, who debuted his voice in Bollywood with Shah Rukh Khan starrer Ra.One, is taking his India connection further by celebrating his birthday in Gurgaon on April 16 with a live show. He will also perform in Bengaluru the next day.
Akon plans to treat his Indian fans with his internationally acclaimed numbers including Beautiful, Lonely, Right Now, Dangerous, I'm So Paid and Angel.
"It's your boy Akon and you heard it straight from me - New Delhi and Bengaluru get ready for my live show. The wait is finally over and now for the first time ever, I'm excited to bring my live show to India," Akon said in a statement.
"I can't wait for my fans to join me where I'll be performing all of your favorites and some new songs from my upcoming album, Stadium. It's also my birthday so I have something very special planned for all my fans so you know its going to be one big party," he added.
