Vish, celebrated as the world’s number one Bollywood busker, continues to enchant audiences globally with his unique fusion of Bollywood melodies and Western rhythms. Originally born and raised in India, Vish launched his career in the UK busking on the streets, driven by his passion, and desire to realize his dream of becoming a superstar. This focus has propelled him into the limelight through his busking endeavours on the streets of the UK, establishing him as a rising star and one to watch.
Following the success of his single “Friday Night,” which soared to #6 on the Black Music Charts and #7 on the Commercial Pop Charts in Music Week, Vish returns with a bang. After the soft release of his song “Doing To Me” from his BELIEVE EP, which also includes an extended version, his latest offering “Doing To Me” the PENGWIN & K Remix promises to captivate fans yet again. Riding on the wave of overwhelming support received for the original and extended version of the track from club, DJ’s. PENGWIN & K’s dynamic remix of the song marks Vish’s evolution from a street performer to a visionary artist with a clear purpose. His remarkable ability to blend multilingual lyrics with Western grooves creates a crossover appeal that brings Bollywood culture into the mainstream. This innovative approach is not only a personal milestone for Vish, but also a beacon of inspiration for aspiring young Bollywood artists.
Reflecting on his journey, Vish shared: “The coming together of all cultures is the new way of the world, and I reflect this in my music with multilingual lyrics fused with western production. I hope to make Bollywood music more palatable to those who might not have given it a chance before. This sense of unity drives me to do what I do.” Vish’s dedication to unity and harmony is further exemplified by his annual performances at Piccadilly Circus, celebrating India and Pakistan’s Independence Days for three consecutive years, attracting between 200 and 300 million views on social media annually on content posted from the event. This overwhelming response indicates that Vish is not alone in his quest for harmony and unity.
Hailed as the pioneer of Bollywood busking worldwide, his frequent busking around the UK has become iconic and not gone unnoticed by the elites of Bollywood music such as BADSHAH, Ash King, Amrit Ramnath, and Maniesh Paul who have all joined him at his busking spots at some point of his journey.
With the creative brilliance of PENGWIN and K, coupled with the strategic backing of Playtime Entertainment, Vish is poised to expand his reach and grow his dedicated fan base, affectionately known as the Vish Army. This release is set to solidify Vish’s standing in the music scene, heralding a new era for Bollywood music.
