Gloria Estefan and Sting are among the stars set to hit the online stage for the global virtual ‘Vax India Now’ fundraiser.
Andrea Bocelli, Josh Groban and Yo-Yo Ma are set to join the music veterans for the show on July 7, in a bid to attract attention and supply medical resources to the country amid the pandemic.
India is currently battling a deadly second wave of the virus, which has left the region on its knees.
Also on the roster is musician David Foster, DJ Alan Walker, comedian Aasif Mandvi, sitar player Nishat Khan, sisters Ranjani-Gayatri and Andrea’s son, singer Matteo Bocelli.
The benefit was founded by Indian-American singer Anuradha Palakurthi who has seen family and friends battle the disease.
She reached out to The Giving Back Fund to create the new ‘Vax India Now’ organisation.
The show will be livestreamed globally on CNN and its YouTube channel and Dreamstage.live.
