Anoushka Shankar to perform impromptu show in Temple of Fine Arts, KL

Renowned British-American sitarist Anoushka Shankar announced an impromptu performance at the Temple of Fine Arts in Kuala Lumpur after her scheduled show at the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre was abruptly cancelled. The unplanned event is set to commence at 8pm and is limited to ticket holders of the original performance, with entry encouraged early due to the venue's smaller size compared to the original location.

Anoushka expressed gratitude to the Temple of Fine Arts, local sitarist Kumar Karthigesu, her band, and crew for their assistance in arranging the impromptu show, stating, "It takes a village." The original performance cancellation was attributed to "circumstances beyond our control."
