Jeetu is an amazing musician and entertainer. He got everyone at our event dancing, his energy is absolutely incredible. He kept the party going and almost two years after our event people are still talking about it!

Jeetu is a MUST at your next event. He performed at my wedding in June and he brought so much extra energy into the music and moments. He is such a kind and wonderful soul, it was a pleasure to work with him. He makes infectious rhythms that make everyone hype!! I couldn’t be any happier with him :)

We had Jeetu play at our wedding and we had so much fun! He did an excellent job and everything he did blended well with the music that the DJ was playing. He is super nice and very easy to work with!

He did such a great job at my wedding. He really got the guests dancing. He is an amazing dhol player!! Great job!!

Booking Jeetu for your wedding is an absolute must!! He brought all the energy and hype for my wedding this past May and made our baraat, cocktail hour and reception events so memorable. He is a sensational percussionist, personable, and flexible. He does not miss a beat! He provided us with an amazing dhol and tabla experience. Jeetu is so versatile that he can accompany any genre of music. Thank you for everything!

Jeetu was one of the highlights of our baraat and reception. He is an amazing performer and his percussion skills really get the crowd going. In addition to his musical talents on the dhol and the table, he is also a true utility player for weddings! He tied safas, played during our wedding, played dhol at the baraat and reception, and overall provided one of our best vendor experiences. I would hire Jeetu for any Indian event without hesitation.

Highly reccomend Jeetu for all your Indian wedding needs. Really enjoyed having him as a vendor - on time, punctual, easy to work with and great music. Our guests loved him!!

Hiring Jeetu was one of the BEST decisions we made for our wedding!! Jeetu played the handpan at our Hindu wedding, tabla at our cocktail hour, and dhol at our baraat and reception. He also tied my husbands turban for our Sikh wedding! Jeetu is incredibly talented in all the instruments he plays! He helped us do a special entrance for our bride and groom reception entrance which was very unique and hyped everyone up for the evening. All of our guests came up to us and told us how much they enjoyed watching him perform and how talented he is. He kept our dance floor packed all night with his amazing dhol skills and can play to ANY genre. In addition to being incredibly talented, Jeetu was always smiling and so wonderful to be around. He radiates such beautiful positive energy - which is exactly what you need during your wedding week! All our guests picked up on his amazing personality and positive energy. Highly recommend Jeetu for your events and I can’t wait to work with him again!!!

Thank you Jeetu for making our wedding reception such a special, memorable, and fun event! Our guests were raving about the energy and excitement you brought to the event! The tabla during cocktail hour really set the tone for the evening. The dhol during the dance floor portion was epic!! Jeetu can play dhol to any genre of music (not just Bollywood / Bhangra), and it really amplified the dancefloor! All of our friends and family were having a blast!! He even let me try and play the dhol, which was awesome!! Thank you soo much! Well worth it for anyone hosting an Indian / Fusion wedding

Jeetu played tabla during our cocktail hour and switched to dhol later in the evening, packing the dance floor instantly. His ability to infuse the dhol beats into various songs was remarkable, and it brought an incredible energy that had everyone dancing throughout the night. I highly recommend him for any event needing authentic Indian music and a lively atmosphere.

Where do I even begin?!?! Jeetu is FULL of energy and talent and professionalism!! Truly one of my BEST decision in my wedding planning was to hire Jeetu to bring all the vibes throughout my wedding weekend! Our guests were obsessed with him!!! He rocked the dhol and I even had him play the tabla during my ceremony and it truly was beautiful. I fully believe that my wedding weekend would not have been as fun without him being there. He got along so well with my DJ and they both worked the magic together! HIRE HIM FOR YOUR EVENTS!! You won't regret it.

I cant thank Jeetu enough! His energy has brought life into our haldi… it was one of the best moments of our life. He was such a pleasure to work with and Im glad he worked with us for dhol even though we played telugu songs

Jeetu was amazing! We had an interracial wedding with a Hindu ceremony in Asheville, NC and he assisted with a wide range of tasks over the course of several hours. He first assisted with tying our safas (headgear) for several men in advance of the wedding ceremony. He then played the dhol (indian musical instrument) for our baraat (indian wedding processional with dancing) prior to our ceremony. Finally, he played the tablas (indian musical instrument) during our cocktail hour set list and even did an impromptu collaboration with violin/cello instrumentalists for 2 more Hindi songs. We could not be happier with his performance and broad musical range!

We are beyond grateful for having Jeetu as our dhol/tabla player at our wedding! He was absolutely incredible and brought so much energy to every part of our celebration. The baraat was on another level with Jeetu leading the way—everyone was completely vibing with the dhol and his energy was contagious. Jeetu truly made the entire experience unforgettable. As a person, Jeetu is a sweetheart—he’s understanding, accommodating, and genuinely works hard to make sure everything goes smoothly for the couple, no matter the situation. He went above and beyond, especially during our cocktail hour, where he blew us away with the live tabla performance! The energy and talent he brought to the reception was just as amazing. Since our wedding was a fusion of cultures, Jeetu did an incredible job blending hip hop, Bollywood hits, and classic throwbacks that had everyone on their feet! We were so lucky that he was able to make it for our big day, even though it was just for one day. Thank you, Jeetu, for trusting this bride with your dhol and making our wedding so special! Highly recommend Jeetu for anyone looking to bring the perfect mix of fun, culture, and energy to their event. So happy he was a part of our celebration!

Jeetu was an absolute superstar at our wedding! From start to finish, he brought an incredible vibe and elevated every part of the day. He kicked things off with a bang at the baraat — his dhol playing had the entire crowd hyped and dancing in the streets. The energy was electric and set the perfect tone for the celebration ahead. During cocktail hour, Jeetu switched to the tabla and created an unforgettable atmosphere. He played seamlessly with our DJ, blending live beats with the music in a way that felt totally effortless and elevated the entire vibe. It was pure magic. And when it was time for the reception, Jeetu was back with the dhol and took the party to another level. The dance floor was packed, and his energy kept everyone going all night long. On top of all that, Jeetu went above and beyond by helping me and my family get ready for the ceremony — he even tied our saafas with care and precision, which made a huge difference during the busy morning. If you’re looking for someone who brings talent, energy, and heart to your big day, Jeetu is the one. Can’t recommend him enough!

Jeetu absolutely lit up the crowd at my sister’s destination wedding in Mexico! His dhol playing was next level—every guest, young and old, went wild. He has a rare talent of reading the room and bringing the perfect energy, whether it was at the baraat, cocktail hour, or reception. He’s truly gifted and knows how to hype up any crowd. In addition, Jeetu helped our family with tying saafas before the big event- they turned out really nice and beautiful in the photos. I can’t recommend him enough- Jeetu was a true highlight of our events!

Amazing drummer with energy and charisma that gives entire wedding receptions good vibes and dance moves. Possibly the best addition to our wedding. Very glad we chose Jeetu. He really knows how to adjust his style to match any music that’s playing and elevate it. He was easy to work with and flew across the country for our event. Looking forward to seeing him perform again at another relative’s wedding in the future.

We had the joy of having Jeetu play dhol, handpan and tabla at our son’s wedding, and his music truly lit up the celebrations. His energy, talent, and ability to engage the crowd created unforgettable moments. The beats were soulful, powerful, and brought everyone together in joy. His impromptu musical dueling with a local darbuka player was sensational. Truly a highlight of the wedding! Thx Jeetu for flying all the way to Istanbul.

We hired Jeetu for our destination wedding and he was easy to communicate with, punctual, and handled travel and logistics smoothly so we never had to worry. He was flexible with last-minute timing and venue constraints, arrived early to test acoustics, coordinated seamlessly with the DJ. His tabla skills are second to none and having him perform at our Sangeet was the highlight for our guests. He also know how to hype the crowd with his dhol. We highly recommend Jeetu for anyone seeking a talented, dependable musician who goes above and beyond!

Jeetu was an excellent addition to our vendor crew. His dhol services at our baraat really defined the experience. When we realized we had technical issues with music, Jeetu stepped up and ensured that everyone still had a blast. Beyond that, he is such a pleasant person to work with. Highly recommend!

Thank you Jeetu! You rocked! The handpan during the wedding was amazing, it added that unique factor we wanted, the dhol during the Baraat and reception was so hype and on point, and even though we didn’t get to personally see you on the tabla - we did receive several compliments! You definitely made our weekend special and exciting!

Jeetu absolutely crushed it during our wedding weekend! He is incredibly talented, and his performances on the tabla, hand pan, and dhol added so much magic to our events. Every instrument was a hit, but the hand pan during our serene ceremony was truly unforgettable. His energy and vibe were unmatched and made him such an amazing addition to our vendor team. He kept the party alive with the dhol, and honestly, I’ve never seen anyone play it as flawlessly as Jeetu….his rhythm is immaculate!! One of the best choices made during our wedding weekend.

Jeetu was extremely skilled, professional, and kind. His saafa tying was top tier, his dhol was loud, and his tabla was classy! We had an amazing experience, and all our guests loved him. His tabla skills made our events extremely unique and memorable. He was very easy to work with and was very accommodating. 10/10 would hire him again and highly would recommend to anyone!

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.
