Question 3

Why should I consider Playing Partners for my event? What unique value do they bring?

Accepted Answer

If you are looking for loud, ear-splitting noise, keep looking. But if you want *atmosphere*? That's where Playing Partners shines. Mandy Maan and Shiva Dutt have a very specific chemistry that you only get with a duo that's been performing professionally for over three years.

They specialize in creating a **soothing and comfortable environment**—think cocktail hours, classy dinners, or intimate gatherings where you want the music to float through the room, not dominate it. Having played at prestigious spots like the **Trident Hotel** and **The Leela**, they know how to read a high-end room. They bring a sophisticated polish that turns a standard event into a memorable evening.

Question 4

What makes Playing Partners stand out compared to other bands in their field?

Accepted Answer

It's their versatility within the capital's circuit. While many bands get stuck in one lane, this duo navigates everything from **club shows** to **college festivals** with equal ease.

Based out of New Delhi, they've left their mark on diverse venues—from the expansive **Mithas Farm** to the vibrant **Blue Sapphire**. Their standout quality is the balance they strike; as a duo, they offer a fuller sound than a solo [singer](https://starclinch.com/book-singer-online) but remain more adaptable and intimate than a massive 5-piece orchestra. They fit into spaces—both physical and sonic—that others just can't.

Question 5

What kind of music repertoire can we expect from Mandy and Shiva?

Accepted Answer

They stick to what they love, and they do it well: **Bollywood and Sufi**.

But don't expect just generic covers. Their style is described as soothing for a reason. They take popular tracks and strip them back or infuse them with a soulful vibe that invites people to listen rather than just hear. Whether it's a soulful Sufi track that hushes a crowd or a Bollywood melody that gets heads nodding, their repertoire is curated to connect emotionally. It's perfect for when you want the music to be the heartbeat of the event, not just background noise.

Question 6

How much does it cost to book Playing Partners for a performance?

Accepted Answer

Budgeting is always the tricky part, right? Generally speaking, their performance fee lands somewhere between **12,000 and 50,000 INR**.

Why the gap? Well, it depends on a few things—are you booking them for a quick 45-minute set at a private birthday, or a full evening's entertainment at a wedding venue like **Tivoli**? Location matters too (though they are Delhi-based). The best way to get a solid number is to use that enquiry form I mentioned earlier; we'll get you a custom quote that fits your specific needs.

Question 7

Does the band provide their own instruments and sound setup?

Accepted Answer

As a professional **LIVE BAND - Bollywood,Sufi** duo, Mandy and Shiva come with their instruments, absolutely. However, regarding the full PA system (speakers, monitors, mixers), this usually depends on the venue size.

For smaller gigs, they might bring a basic setup, but for larger halls or open-air events like college fests, a technical rider will be provided. You'll likely need to arrange the sound output to match their specs. Don't worry—we help coordinate all those technical boring bits so there's no feedback screeching when they start singing!

Question 8

Are Playing Partners available for events outside of New Delhi?

Accepted Answer

While New Delhi is their home turf—and where they've built a solid reputation at venues like **Blue Sapphire**—they are performers at heart.

Typically, artists of this caliber are open to traveling for the right event. If you're planning something outside the capital, just factor in travel and accommodation costs into your budget. Since they are a duo, the logistics are way easier than moving a massive band, making them a great option for destination events that need a touch of Delhi's musical soul.
