About Enrique
Enrique Iglesias, born in Madrid to the renowned Spanish singer Julio Iglesias and the elegant Filipina socialite Isabel Preysler, forged his own path to stardom. He initially performed under a pseudonym to establish his unique identity, separate from his father’s legacy. His music has consistently connected with Indian audiences, with timeless ballads like Hero and Bailamos, as well as upbeat tracks such as Escape, Rhythm Divine, and Tonight (I’m Lovin’ You).
Reflecting on his performances in India, Iglesias shared his enthusiasm: “The supporters in India are fantastic. They possess such genuine appreciation and reverence for the art of music. When I take the stage in India, the audiences are simply outstanding. The energy level is remarkable. I am eager to experience that energy level with my fans in India.”
Enrique’s Connection with India
Iglesias has a long-standing connection with India, having first performed in Mumbai in 2004. He returned in 2012 for his Euphoria World Tour, which included successful stops in Pune, Gurugram, and Bengaluru. His concerts played a significant role in introducing Indian audiences to the vibrant world of Latin pop, paving the way for the current surge in global music events across the country.
His return to India after a 13-year hiatus, in a year that has already seen performances by major international artists like Coldplay, Guns N’ Roses, Cigarettes After Sex, and Ed Sheeran, marks a full-circle, nostalgic moment for his Indian fanbase.
