Pankaj Adaval is the founder of Swaranjali which started in Northboro at a private home but are now ready to host larger concerts for charity. Lokvani talked to Pankaj Adaval to share the idea behind this group.

How was Swaranjali formed ?

Swaranjali means Musical Offering. Members of Swaranjali come from different walks of life but have found two things they are passionate about: their bond of friendships and their love for Music. They have been meeting at each other’s place and always enjoyed sharing each other’s culture, food and most importantly each other’s melodious voices. On one of these occasions, a concept was floated by Pankaj Adaval that we could use our talent to raise money for charity and entertain our community. Everyone jumped in and was enthusiastic and that is when Swaranjali was born.

What is your goal for the community?

Swaranjali is a way to connect with Indian community through a common language spoken by everyone: music and melody. Swaranjali made its first debut on 26th October, 2016 at old age day care center “Amrit Sabha” Northborough, MA. This program was a huge success and Swaranjali team received a great response. The two hours flew away like few minutes. When it was time to say good byes, tears were rolling with high emotions and promises to be back soon were made. 

Swaranjali is now going to perform on 21st January with its full troop, the excitement of our team is quite palpable. We hope we can keep up with the expectations. We want to make our elders happy, take them back into memories of times when they were younger and in return get their many blessings and affection.  

Who are the team members and singers in the group?

Swaranjali team members are:

The Adavals (Pankaj and Sunita)   
The Alis (Shujaat and Sadia); 
The Gites (Ashish and Varsha); 
The Kumars (Hemant and Manju)
The Singhs ( Rashmi and Manoj)

What kind of music do you perform? Classical, hindustani or carnatic etc
Swaranjali has got multi-talented members but we are focused on Bollywood music. Beside Bollywood we perform devotional and gazals too.  
  
What is the best way to get on touch?
