The #1 DJ/Dholi for your events!

We were so fortunate to have DJ Khiladi DJ and play dhol at our wedding events. He was extremely accommodating of all preferences from the beginning. He was extremely professional and transparent with his services, the value he offers and sharing connections with other vendors to help make our dreams come true. He always met with us whenever we had questions and never failed to take our interests/preferences into account when creating mixes/playing dhol for our events. He even coordinated with another group of chenda players to create an original drum piece with the dhol during the baraat! I highly recommend him to anyone!

Absolute Perfection from Pujas to Baarat

We could not have asked for a better DJ and Dhol player for our wedding! From start to finish, his professionalism was outstanding. He was organized, arrived on time, and kept everything running smoothly without a single technical glitch.

He absolutely brought the energy for the Baraat. The dhol beats were incredible, and he knew exactly how to read the crowd, hype everyone up, and keep the energy at an all-time high the entire time. He worked well with our DJ.

What truly set him apart, though, was his attention to detail. He took the time before the event and meticulously asked about specific song choices and what traditional music to use for the Grah Shanti. The level of care and respect for our cultural rituals meant the world to us. If you want someone who can bring the party but also respects the traditions, hire him!

Swara Sagar For The Win!

Everything from the initial call to the final execution was handled flawlessly!! The entire team with Swara Sagar did an amazing job with our wedding Baraat and incorporated our Trinidad and Indian mashup of music seamlessly while keeping the crowd hype and dancing the entire time. Although we couldn’t use our smoke flares due to city of Chicago limitations, the team was very professional about it and found an alternative solution. I couldn’t imagine booking with anyone else for our wedding. They are the best!

The Perfect DJ for Our Celebration!

We hired DJ Khiladi / Swara Sagar for our engagement ceremony this year, and they were absolutely fantastic! They were incredibly prepared, super helpful throughout the entire process, and extremely responsive leading up to the event. We had a last-minute change of plans during our event, and they handled it effortlessly, pivoting without any stress or hesitation. The music, the vibe, and their professionalism truly elevated our celebration. We would 100% hire them again for future events! Highly recommend!

Perfect!

Sanjay was our DJ for a surprise 25th wedding anniversary for my sister and brother. Since the 1st day we interacted with him, he was simply the best. He knew what we wanted and worked with us to deliver an unforgettable evening. He worked very closely with us on the details, was in touch with the venue to coordinate and even spent a few evenings with us to do a dry run. We would highly, highly recommend Sanjay and his team for any event and look forward to booking with him again. Wonderful work, super professional, very kind and always open to idea. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

Great DJ Experience!

Swara Sagar was very communicative and professional. We used him to set up audio usage at the Loews Hotel and InterContinental for a couple wedding events for my sister's wedding. He was so nice and easy to work with, provided a clear understanding of how his DJ services would be utilized. He's also worked at these venues, which made it easier for both us and him.

Excellence with a Personal Touch

DJ Khiladi (Sanjay) was a phenomenal choice for the DJ and entertainment services during our wedding weekend. Starting with the initial conversation to discuss what services we would require, Sanjay exemplified professionalism. He demonstrated an attention to detail which was reflected in the package he put together for us at the end of the call, including ideas that we didn't initially think of but ended up choosing after receiving his creative input. Regarding communication, Sanjay was fantastic. The planning phase for our wedding weekend lasted nearly 2 years, and he checked in with us consistently, and in a large part was the reason we stayed on track with our planning overall. Whether it was coordinating with other family members, ensuring speeches during the reception were entertaining but also to the point, or providing feedback on our proposed structure for an event, Sanjay was reliable and professional, while also making things fun. We also want to highlight that our wedding included a very traditional, Tamil Hindu Ceremony, which had many sound and visual details that Sanjay mastered after consulting with our family members on his own. He set up all of the meetings between different family members, the multiple venues, and even with other vendors. Truly, our wedding weekend was made complete by the work of DJ Khiladi and we could not have done this without him.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
