Dua Lipa took Mumbai by storm during her recent performance at the MMRDA Grounds, as part of her Radical Optimism Tour. The global pop sensation wowed her fans with a nearly two-hour non-stop set, which included a surprise mashup of her hit song “Levitating” with one of Bollywood’s most iconic tracks, Shah Rukh Khan’s “Woh Ladki Jo”.
Dua Lipa’s Electrifying Performance in Mumbai
The crowd in Mumbai erupted with excitement as Dua Lipa grooved to the infectious beats of SRK’s song “Woh Ladki Jo” from the 1999 film Baadshah. This viral mashup brought together Dua’s catchy pop tune with the timeless Bollywood classic, creating an unforgettable fusion of Western and Indian music. To make it even more memorable, Dua and her dancers showcased some desi dance moves, adding a delightful surprise to the performance.
Dressed in a stunning white corseted one-piece paired with boots, Dua Lipa captivated the audience with her energy and charisma. The moment “Levitating” transitioned into SRK’s song “Woh Ladki Jo,” fans could feel the excitement in the air as Dua danced with the rhythm of both cultures blending seamlessly.
A Special Connection with SRK

During that trip, she had the chance to meet the Bollywood superstar, and SRK later shared a heartfelt message on social media, wishing Dua all the best for her concert. This special bond between the two stars was evident as Dua Lipa paid tribute to the iconic SRK song during her Mumbai concert.
