Mumbai, Oct 28 (IANS) The Grammy Award-winning singer Enrique Iglesias is back in India after 13 long years ahead of his much-anticipated Mumbai concert.

The 'Hero' singer is set to perform in the Maximum City on October 30 at the MMRDA Grounds in Mumbai’s Bandra Kurla Complex. As tickets for the October 30 concert reportedly sold out quickly, the organisers added another show on October 29, keeping in view the high demand for the singer.

During an exclusive conversation with IANS, Iglesias revealed that returning to India was always a priority.

Iglesias told IANS that “there was no hiatus”, sharing why this was the right time for his return to the country.

He shared, “There was no hiatus; it just takes time between albums and touring around to other countries to make it back over there. But it has always been a priority to come back, and I could not be more thrilled.”

Shedding light on India emerging as a significant player in the global music conversation, the singer said, “It was bound to happen, and I couldn’t be happier. India has such amazing fans. They have such a great respect and appreciation for music. I must also point out how incredible the fans are when I perform in India. The energy it’s extraordinary."

During the conversation, Iglesias even hinted at a possible collaboration with an Indian artist.

When asked if he would ever consider joining forces with Indian artists or incorporating Indian sounds into his music, he stated, “I am always open to ideas, and you never know — it could already be in the making.”
