American recording artist Prita Chhabra has released her new single and music video with a little help from this side of the pond.
British-Asian R&B superstar Navin Kundra joins Prita on ‘Dance’, the first track that brings male and female R&B counterparts from the world's contemporary South Asian music scene together.
Produced by JUNO nominated Othentic Productions in Montreal, ‘Dance’ boasts a fusion of Navin's poetic Hindi verses alongside Prita's English lyrics.
The powerful track is supported by a great video, created by highly acclaimed director Jazz Virk, and offers a rare behind-the-scenes look at Navin and Prita on tour together.
Fans of the stars can watch them rehearsing for their first collaborative live performance in real time, whilst offering a taste of their dynamic end result.
The ‘Dance’ video's director Jazz Virk, who’s past video collaborations have included a host of high profile artists including Nelly Furtado and Basement Jaxx.
Virk was also behind the biggest budget South Asian music video to date – ‘Rambo’ by multi-platinum Vancouver bhangra artist Jazzy B.
In addition to performances in Toronto, Prita and Navin recently headlined the 9th annual India Fest in West Palm Beach (Florida), and are currently planning several other performances across North America.
