Baba Sehgal, one of the figures who helped bring rap into India's mainstream, is bringing his blend of music, humor and nostalgia to Muscat on October 29, 2026.

The performance at the Sheraton Oman Hotel will showcase the style that made Sehgal widely recognizable in the 1990s: catchy Hindi lyrics, rap and comedy. The evening is expected to include some of his popular numbers alongside his trademark comic presentation.

Sehgal has built a career as a rapper, songwriter, television personality and entertainer. His playful approach to rap, often mixed with satire and social commentary, helped introduce the genre to a wider Indian audience when it was still relatively new to mainstream music.

Organized by NHP EVENTS, the show is supported by Sheraton Oman Hotel, Nexus Novel Advertising, Al Hashar Pharmacy and Times of Oman. Tickets are available through the event website from OMR 7.5 per person, including one beverage. The event is expected to draw both Indian expatriates who remember Sehgal's early hits and younger listeners familiar with his unconventional musical style.
