Bablu Shikdar keeps the Eid spirit alive with a mix of celebration anthems, Bollywood throwbacks and UK desi favourites.

New voices. New sounds.

Bablu Shikdar brings the Eid vibes with a soundtrack inspired by family gatherings, cultural traditions and the music that brings people together. From iconic artists like Imran Khan, Jay Sean and Diljit Dosanjh to fresh sounds from Muki, Muza and Zack Knight, expect a show packed with nostalgia, energy and feel-good moments.

Along the way, Bablu reflects on his favourite Eid memories. From crowded family homes and fiercely competitive games to the unique traditions that make every celebration special. In Moments That Made Me, he shares the role food, family and culture have played in shaping his identity, while Perspectives with Bablu explores the importance of cherishing the people we love and being present in the moments that matter most.

Blending Bollywood classics, UK desi anthems and global sounds, this is a celebration of togetherness, gratitude and the joy of shared experiences.
