The internationally recognized legend who has over 100 million records to his credit captivated audiences recently at the Formula 1 circuit in Greater Noida. He is on his maiden visit to India where he performed at the Formula 1 Rocks concert.
Santana received a traditional welcome on his arrival with a special ‘pooja’ and was hosted at the Presidential Suite at the ITC Maurya. The ten-time Grammy Award winner who enthralled audience to his unique music since four decades has a fan range that cuts across all age groups.
Currently, he seems to be smitten with India and has taken to South Indian food in Bengaluru. “I tried the South Indian breakfast and it was Oh My God food. I gorged on the masala dosa, the spicy cauliflower sabzi and dals. But my favorite was the mango lassi”, he said. The self confessed hippy respect Indian classical music and musicians such as Pandit Ravi Shankar and Ali Akbar Khan whom he called “the god of the gods”. He said he wanted to collaborate with the maestro but never got a chance.
