Ecstatic with this experience King said, “Cannes. Wow. It wasn’t just about me, it was about representing all the talented Indian musicians out there. Cannes felt like a turning point, A chance to show the world what Indian music can do. I wanted to wear an Indian designer and bring a part of my country along with me. The fabric and the work on my outfit gives you a proud touch of our talented handloom industry.”
In just a few short years, King has amassed a dedicated following in India m and beyond, with top-charting music and powerful live performances. His Cannes appearance is a testament to their talent, hard work, and the undeniable power of Indian pop.
