Mithoon said, “This performance wasn’t just a tribute — it was a deeply personal journey. Raj Kapoor and Manoj Kumar Sir have been legendary inspirations, not just to our industry but to me personally. As a composer, I grew up immersed in their films and the unforgettable music that defined their cinematic storytelling. I remember listening to those melodies with my father. To honour their legacy through a medley crafted with so much heart, alongside Palak, was incredibly special. And the fact that this was our first time performing together as husband and wife made the night even more unforgettable. There was a special kind of magic in the air — it felt like we were truly connecting with the golden era of Indian cinema. It has been a joy for me to reimagine these timeless classics in my own style.”

Palak said, “I’ve sung on many stages before, but this one felt different. There was something profoundly moving about performing a tribute to legends like Raj Kapoor and Manoj Kumar Sir — icons whose films and songs were a constant presence in my home, playing in the background of quiet Sunday afternoons. To share this stage with Mithoon, as partners in life and music, surrounded by 60 brilliant musicians, was nothing short of surreal. This act wasn’t just a performance — it felt like we were part of something much bigger: a shared love for cinema and its timeless melodies that continue to unite generations. I’ll hold this moment close to my heart forever.”
