Whenever international artists visit India, our citizens and Bollywood stars start drooling over them like anything. Last year it was Justin Bieber and this year when the news of Katy Perry and Dua Lipa performing in India came out everyone was gung ho about watching them perform live.

While everyone was happy about these pop star performing in India, singer Sona Mohapatra took to her Instagram and invited Katy and Dua to for her concert to learn more about Indian music and its tradition. She took a dig at the pop stars for hanging out just with Bollywood stars and not actually meeting any singers or composers from India.

Taking to her Instagram handle, Sona inviting Dua and Katy wrote, “Dear @katyperry & @dualipa, Would you not have liked to hang out, speak music & learn a bit more about our glorious musical traditions with the real Rockstars & Music Makers of India? Maybe you’d like to attend this centuries-old celebration I’m playing? (Drop me a message)This is one of Asia’s biggest turnout & oldest celebration. Cuttack Balijatra(sic).”

Sona poked fun at how these international celebs visit India but don’t care about trying to actually learn about the country’s musical tradition or meet real rockstars.

Dua and Katy were in India for the OnePlus Music Festival which took place on November 16 in Mumbai at the DY Patil stadium. Karan Johar had hosted a lavish party for Katy ahead of her concert. The party was attended by all the big-wigs of B-town.
