RUBINA’S RADAR
Whilst Bollywood actor Ranbir Kapoor’s got girls crushing on his looks with an enviable legion of die-hard fans notwithstanding, you’d never guess who his sister Riddhima Kapoor-Sahni is a huge fan of. Justin Bieber! The Grammy award winning singer is minutes and hours away from landing in Mumbai on Sunday, May 7th for the Asian leg of his Purpose World Tour wherein he’ll be performing live for his very first show in India on May 10th at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. The JB Army in India is counting down to Bieber Fever live, come Wednesday evening.

The Delhi-based jewellery designer is a Belieber and loves his music (who doesn’t), so much so that she’s designed two bracelets from her eponymous Indian jewellery line for him and that’s not all. She’s even made one for his mother, Patricia (Pattie) Mallette too! “I hope Justin enjoys wearing my creations as much as we enjoyed making them for him and his mom, Pattie. It’s rather unfortunate that I can’t be at the show in Mumbai as I have a work exhibit here in Delhi. I would have loved to hear him sing my favourite track, Where Are You Now, live in Mumbai,” says Sahni of her welcome package for the Canadian singer.
If Bieber digs the bracelets as much as she does his music, AND wears them, it’ll be the ultimate reciprocal gesture for her from the popstar.
UPDATED: Justin Bieber did not arrive into Mumbai from Dubai, UAE today as expected, but his tour manager did. The ETA of the Bieber jet (with him in it!) will be published here as soon as possible.

Justin Bieber’s hitting Mumbai with his Purpose World Tour 2017 concert in a week from today and it is the conversation du jour in the city. It’s the summer’s biggest gig as Bieber, one of the world’s biggest pop icons, performs live for the first time in India in Mumbai on May 10th at the DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai. His platinum set list for the Purpose tour comprises of tracks like Purpose, Cold Water, Where Are You Now, Sorry, Baby, Boyfriend, Let Me Love You and the like. The coolest retort to the “What’s Happening in Mumbai?” line is now “Bieber’s happening in Mumbai!” The Purpose concert feels like a wild, hysterical night already, wherein his Indian fans will be screaming hoarse for encores. The hysteria on show night will just have to be seen, and heard, to be Beliebed!
