With the brilliant backing of the 75-piece orchestra, the event became a spell bounding one as the voice of Sonu floated around bringing back memories with the haunting golden tunes of tracks like "Dil Ke Jharoke Mein" and "Mujhe Teri Mohabbat Ka Sahara"

The track "An Evening In Paris" was changed to "An Evening In London" to honor the occasion.
