Bollywood singing sensations Alka Yagnik and Abhijeet Bhattacharya enthralled audiences in Trinidad, entertaining over 7,000 fans with their songs.
The two belted out one hit number after another at the Centre of Excellence in Port-of-Spain on Saturday night.
Malick Indian Dancers, a local group, joined Alka as she sang the popular number You are my Sonia. She ended her first performance of the evening amidst cheers and blown kisses with her famous hit Bole chudiya.
Then the moment of euphoria erupted. Abhijeet, whose luggage was left in New York, sang a series of his popular hits, which included Bari mushkil hai and Bahut khoobsurat ho.
The show ended around 1 am on Sunday, but the audience gathered there wanted more from their favourite singers.
Bollywood entertainers draw huge crowds in the Carribean, given the sizeable population of ethnic Indians. The 500,000-strong Indian diaspora comprises 40 per cent of Trinidad and Tobago's population.
Indian movies continue to be one of the main sources of entertainment among Trinidadians, even non-Indians. Indian movies and Bollywood entertainers help maintain the sociological and cultural links between India and its Trinidadian diaspora.
