Delhi-NCR turned into a glowing singalong arena on Sunday as Danish pop band Michael Learns To Rock (MLTR) closed the final leg of their Take Us To Your Heart India Tour 2026, curated by Fever Live. After Bengaluru and Mumbai, the final night in Gurugram felt like a warm farewell, with fans across age groups turning up to relive the band’s ’90s soundtrack.

Opening with Someday and moving seamlessly into crowd favourites like Paint My Love, That’s Why, and Take Us To Your Heart, the trio, lead vocalist Jascha Richter, lead-guitarist Mikkel Lentz, and drummer Kåre Wanscher leaned into the nostalgia during the 90-minute performance. Phone flashlights lit up the venue, couples swayed in rhythm, and fans sang loudly enough to drown the speakers.

The Gurugram gig also reflected MLTR’s long relationship with Indian audiences. “India is a special place for us,” drummer Kåre Wanscher said briefly, acknowledging the warmth they’ve received over the decades.

As the final chords rang out, the crowd refused to let the band leave, clapping and chanting until the trio returned for an encore. HTC
