The Mehndi is the warm-up to the entire wedding weekend — bride, family, friends, henna, and hours of conversation and music. DJ Sohbash's Mehndi playlist is its own arc, moving carefully from soft melodic Bollywood early on to energetic group dance numbers as the day builds. Sufi ballads, romantic classics, and unexpected crowd-pleasers complete the journey.

Folk music, regional classics, songs that bridge generations on the dance floor. His ability to read the moment and amplify it has made his Haldi performances genuinely legendary in South Asian wedding circles.

Sangeet Night
Sangeet night is what most clients later describe as the highlight of the wedding weekend, and DJ Sohbash's role in it is what they remember. Once the family performances and skits finish, he runs a set built specifically for that family — multi-era Bollywood, Bhangra for the Punjabi uncles, fusion EDM drops for the younger guests, and the kind of seamless crowd reading that keeps every generation dancing until midnight.
