CMR Starfest 2016 – Indoor Event
September 3rd and 4th, 2016
This year we only had one show and it was an indoor event held at The International Centre. This year’s show was easily the best to date! On Saturday, we started off the day with our Battle of the Bands competition, followed by the hilarious comedic duo of Dindigul Saravanan and Erode Mahesh. Day 1 ended with performances from Karthik and Suvi Suresh with the help of Pravin Mani and his Avatar Band. Karthik and Suvi Suresh put on an absolutely breathtaking show for a sold out crowd. They definitely set the bar high for Sundays crowd.
There are not enough words to describe the buzz that was surrounding Day 2 of Starfest 2016. With legendary Indian playback singer Padmashri.Hariharan set to take the stage on Sunday, this was the place to be during the September long weekend. Sunday started off with the Dare 2 Dance competition, followed by two comedy skits, one from Dindigul Saravanan and Kamalbharathy from CMR and the second from CMR’s very own Kamalbharathy and RJ Venuthan. Starfest 2016 ended off with a bang with the once in a lifetime performance from Padmashri Hariharan. There were more than 200 Canadian Artists that participated and performed with Padmashri Hariharan, which enlightens the success of the show .Its always been one of CMR’s main purpose to help promote and give local Canadian Artists an outlet to showcase their talents.
