Global music sensation Shakira is all set to return to India after nearly two decades, and the excitement among fans is reaching fever pitch. The Colombian superstar’s highly anticipated tour has already sparked massive enthusiasm across the country, prompting organizers to add a second show in Mumbai to meet overwhelming demand.
Originally scheduled for a single performance in Mumbai, the response to ticket sales and online buzz led to the addition of another concert. Shakira will now perform two back-to-back shows in the city on April 10 and April 11 at the iconic Mahalaxmi Racecourse. After the Mumbai concerts, the singer will travel to New Delhi for the final show of the tour, which will take place on April 15 at Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium.
This tour marks a significant moment for Indian fans, as it will be Shakira’s first major performance in the country in nearly 19 years. Her last concert in India took place in 2007 as part of the Oral Fixation Tour, making her upcoming return especially meaningful for long-time followers of her music.
The announcement of the additional Mumbai show quickly became a trending topic online. The news was first revealed over the weekend on the District by Zomato app, which is handling ticket sales for the concerts. Social media platforms were soon flooded with reactions from excited fans eager to grab tickets for the rare opportunity to see the global pop icon perform live.
Tickets for the originally announced concerts went on sale on March 1 and were met with an overwhelming response. However, ticket sales for the newly added April 11 show in Mumbai have not yet been officially announced. Organizers have advised fans to keep a close watch on the District by Zomato app for updates and the live booking link.
While Shakira’s concerts promise electrifying performances featuring her signature dance moves and chart-topping hits, the tour also carries a meaningful social mission. The shows are part of the Feeding India initiative, which focuses on improving nutrition for children and supporting the global United Nations campaign for the Zero Hunger Goal.
Fans can also expect to hear some of Shakira’s biggest global hits during the shows, including iconic tracks like Hips Don’t Lie and Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), which remain some of the most recognizable songs in international pop music.
Adding to the excitement surrounding the tour, rumors have been circulating about a possible special guest appearance by Punjabi music star Diljit Dosanjh. Although neither artist has officially confirmed the collaboration, fans are already buzzing about the possibility of the two global performers sharing the stage. If it happens, the crossover could create a unique musical moment that blends Latin pop with Punjabi music.
The three-city tour is being presented by HSBC India and produced by District, the events division connected to the ticketing platform. Organizers say the concerts are expected to be among the biggest live entertainment events of the year, combining music, philanthropy and large-scale production.
With thousands of fans eagerly waiting for tickets and social media buzzing with speculation about surprise performances, Shakira’s return to India is shaping up to be one of the most anticipated music events of 2026.
