Hey Raju, Thanks for making this a memorable night of celebrations for Renga’s milestone birthday. We just conceptualized and ‘Andaaz’ - Raju, Divya and Kanchan, made it a dream come true! From the exceptional music to the seamless MC ‘ing, it was one night of pure music extravaganza, and we couldn’t have done it without you. Kachan’s piano was exceptional and so glad to hear her musical genius in person! Divya and Raju’s foot tapping numbers were thoroughly enjoyed by all. Music ka Andaaz’ Bahut Shandaar

I have recently engaged Andaz Creations team for a milestone birthday event and I am so glad I did! It was definitely a highlight of our event, that was rather simple as such! Our evening turned extra special and memorable with soulful melodies and dance numbers covering full spectrum of Bollywood songs! Starting from the first conversation to the event day itself, it was a pretty smooth experience working with Raju ji! We loved their selection of the songs and also appreciated that they were flexible with our ad hoc requests in the party! The singers were really good and the band was just amazing! I particularly loved the Dhol welcome of our birthday guest! Over all, I highly recommend Andaz Creations to anyone that is looking to make their event special and memorable

We hired Andaaz Creations for a Sangeet function of our daughter’s wedding last year. Raju Chithambaram and Pooja Purandare were the singers and they sang many old beautiful Bollywood songs!! Pooja is an EXCEPTIONAL talent with a sweet and melodious voice and Raju is not only a great singer but he was also the MC of the ceremony! Needless to say, the program was a BIG hit with us and our guests! The music system was top notch and all the songs were well chosen after I explained our theme and preferences. I have no doubt in my mind that we will choose their services again in future!

I am Bijoya saha, I always knew my daughter was born with music , but she was a painfully shy girl, to become an entertainer u need a lot of other things as well. I have not seen anybody who understands popular music and the art of projection of it on stage other than Raju. The “GURU” concept in teaching is very rare in these days probably for practical reasons, to me he comes very very close to that concept , not only music he takes care of the overall wellbeing of them, he amplifies their strengths, slowly cures their weaknesses, treats them with empathy , love and creates a bond which will never be diminished. We as a family are ardent admirers of his teaching ??, whatever I said is understatement , as when I look at my daughter now and the growth I see in her

I recently had the pleasure of experiencing the phenomenal live dhol performance by Bala Mahadevan during my son's wedding. One of the highlights was the baraat procession, where he led the groom's entrance with such vigor that set the perfect tone for the wedding. In collaboration with me and my family he was able to have a playlist of songs in Tamil, Telugu as well as Hindi. He also had the perfect song for the bride's entrance. He worked well with the very demanding panditji. He understands the hindu customs and plans his playlist accordingly. Beyond his musical talent, Bala was very professional, he provided quotes and also discussed with the venue coordinator about sound systems and other challenges. He arrived on time and set up everything by himself. Very positive and works well during high pressure situations. If you are looking to add an authentic and exhilarating touch to your wedding Bala Mahadevan is the perfect choice. His overall performance will not only meet your expectations, it will leave your guests with unforgettable memories. Overall, Bala Mahadevan is a top-notch DJ/Dhol player whose live entertainment adds a vibrant and dynamic element to any wedding celebration. Five starsLive well, Laugh often and Love truly.

We had an amazing experience with Andaaz Creations sometime back. We wanted live singing and great music for our dandiya night in my community. Raju ji and Kanika created the most amazing experience for our friends and neighbors. We have many DJs in the bay area, but their live singing makes them unique. I loved how they interacted and took song requests from the attendees. Since it was Navrati time, Kanika's soulful bhajan and Arti made it even more special. I highly recommend Andaaz Creations for any event you are planning and need extremely professional and talented artists. Thank you!

My first experience with Andaaz Creations was about 8 years ago. I attended their musical extravaganza (titled Mera Naam Kapoor) in San Mateo and thereafter several other fundraisers spread across the Bay Area. Each had a different theme and paid fitting tribute to Bollywood icons like Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Pancham Da, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Kaviraj Shailendra etc. I was completely mesmerized by the amazing talent, passion, commitment and levels of perfection they bring to each of their events. While they set our foots tapping and hearts fluttering, they have built a vast, loyal, fan following over the years. One of the lead singers sounds like Rafi, yet another like Kishore :) Andaaz is equally adept at scaling up or down depending on whether it is a stage production with a live band or a smaller celebration at home accompanied by a karaoke track in the comfort of one's home / yard. Once you listen to them, you'll be hooked!

We had the pleasure of having Andaaz Creations at our event, recently. We had reached out to Raju on the spur of moment, hoping to see if we could turn a dinner event of close friends into an impromptu music evening. Receiving a contact to Andaaz Creations just days before the event, we weren’t even sure if it was possible and had no idea what to expect. Raju promised to make it work at short notice and worked with us quickly to put together the logistics of the event. Not only were we very pleasantly surprised, the lovely and talented group of musicians turned our small event into a magical and memorable evening that will be remembered by all in our group for years to come. Combined with their talent, the sheer joy of singing and love for the art of music was evident in their performance. They sang from the heart and soul and all members of our gathering (that included ages 8-80) enjoyed it immensely at their own level. With timeless music numbers carefully crafted for our particular audience, we had older members of our group, leave with nostalgic smiles taking them back to their youth, and the youngest members of our group were mesmerized by Melodies that at once seemed new, yet strangely familiar. Needless to say we highly recommend Andaaz Creations for any event, be it a wedding, other celebration or just the desire to carve out an evening for no particular reason but to freeze time and enjoy “the Shaam, the Chandani”, you will not be disappointed!
