8 Nov
Summary
- Vishal Mishra's electrifying performance at Khasdar Sanskrutik Mahotsav 2025
- Record-breaking collective Gita recitation by 52,559 students
- Calls for a larger stadium to accommodate growing festival crowds
On the second day of the Khasdar Sanskrutik Mahotsav 2025 in Nagpur, the night sky over Hanuman Nagar came alive with the energy of thousands of voices singing in unison as Vishal Mishra took the stage by storm. The singer blended emotion, nostalgia, and the spirit of Nagpur, performing hits like 'Tu Pehla Pehla Pyar Hai Mera', 'Koi Itna Khubsoorat', and 'Pehle Bhi Mai', as well as tributes to KK and Zubeen Garg.
Earlier that day, a record-breaking 52,559 students from 302 schools came together to collectively recite chapters 12, 15, and 16 of the Bhagavad Gita, entering the World Record Book of India, India Book of Records, and Asia Book of Records. The event, organized in association with Gita Parivar, was graced by Union minister Nitin Gadkari and other dignitaries.
During the evening event, Gadkari lauded the growing enthusiasm of Nagpurians but noted that due to limited space, many were unable to enjoy the festival. He requested Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis to build a stadium with a capacity of one lakh people, so that no one is left out from such grand events in the future.
