5 Standout Moments from A.R. Rahman’s “THE Wonderment Tour”

A.R. Rahman’s “The Wonderment Tour” is packing venues across North America. Fans are arriving early, singing every word, and sharing the kind of moments you can’t recreate. If you’re not in the crowd, you’re missing one of the most powerful cultural events of the year. At Sanskar Savvy, we’re here to Celebrate, Explore, Connect! and this tour represents everything we stand for.

Here are five standout moments that fans can’t stop talking about and why you need to grab your tickets now, before this experience passes you by!

1. Mustafa Mustafa

When Mustafa Mustafa started, the crowd lit up. Thousands raised their phones in sync, creating a glowing sea of flashlights. It felt like one big shared moment. Just before the song, Ameen Rahman handed out surprise t-shirts to fans in the front rows, making it feel even more personal.

Ash Bala, a Sanskar Savvy team member said it best:
“Mustafa Mustafa, with flashlights, stole the crowd.”

For longtime Rahman fans, Choti Si Asha hits deep. From his first film, Roja, the song brought people straight back to the moment they first heard it. The live version carried that same emotional weight.

Savitha Sivakumar, Sanskar Savvy team member told us,
“My favorite moment was hearing Swetha Mohan sing Roja live. It meant everything to me. Even 3 decades later, it still gives me goosebumps when I hear the starting BGM.”

The connection between generations of listeners and singers on stage made this a moment to remember.

3. Chaiyya Chaiyya

The crowd leaned in the moment Naadan Parindey began. A.R. Rahman and Nitesh Aher took the stage together, and the emotion in their voices hit everyone hard. Aleif Hamdan and Nilanjana backed them on guitar, adding power and texture to every note. It was a raw, moving moment that pulled the crowd in completely.

5. Vande Mataram

To close the show, Rahman gathered all the vocalists for Vande Mataram. The audience stood up and sang along word for word. The Tamil portion especially touched many in the crowd.

Niveda, another one of our Sanskar Savvy team said,
“The portion sung by A.R. Rahman made me feel complete while missing India and being in this faraway land.”

Experiencing this song live was a reminder of home and pride in where we come from.
