"Arjun and Shailendra Singh of Percept have brainstormed over months, working out the details of the music festival property. It will be modelled on the Glastonbury Festival in Somerset, UK. Artists and musicians of the stature of Elton John, U2, Madonna and Prince and Britney Spears and Rihanna are expected to come to India for the Lost festival," said a source.

Why Lost?

"Because Arjun and Shailendra felt that music lovers in India need a platform where they are lost to gain a sense of musical liberation," said the source.

Lost is expected to kickstart in the second half of the year. The music festival is being planned on a sprawling 30-acre stretch of land.

"Arjun and Percept want to create the largest most keenly-attended music festival in India. They start with the first concert in Mumbai and then proceed to have three festivals each year in different cities of the world…

The deal is expected to be officially announced next week.

Arjun and Singh remained unavailable for comment.
