Harirang Concert — USA
In 2024, the Sangh took Maharashtrian folk music to the United States via the "Harirang Concert". They performed the traditional "Devicha Gondhal" across six major cities, bringing the ancient Gondhali art to a global audience.
A major milestone was performing at the Philadelphia Ganesh Festival — North America's largest 10-day public Ganesh festival — showcasing the depth of Maharashtra's folk traditions on an international stage.
Performance before PM Narendra Modi
The Shinde brothers performed the traditional Jagran Gondhal in the United States in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his September tour. This performance was recognized as a significant cultural moment, with the PM acknowledging their contribution to promoting Maharashtrian folk art globally.
This recognition at the highest level of national leadership has brought visibility to the Gondhali tradition and inspired a new generation of folk artists.
