At MLBx: Mumbai, the energy will extend from the field to the stage as Badshah and KR$NA bring their contrasting sounds to the arena. 

Music, baseball and more

Being among some of India’s biggest singers and performers, Badshah will bring his signature sound and high-energy stage presence, with fans able to look forward to favourites such as “DJ Waley Babu,” “Genda Phool” and “Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai,” while KR$NA will showcase the sharp lyricism and intensity that have made him one of Indian hip-hop’s most distinctive voices, with fans potentially hearing tracks such as “Machayenge 4,” “No Cap” and “I Guess.” Adding to the musical line-up, DJ OG Shez will bring her own high-energy sets to the stage, with fans potentially hearing crowd favourites such as “Mera Piya Ghar Aaya 2.0” and “Chaleya (DJ Remix).” Together, the artists will give MLBx: Mumbai a strong Indian soundtrack and add another dimension to the experience. 

At the heart of the event is MLBx, Major League Baseball’s dynamic, mixed 3-on-3 competition that combines power hitting, athletic defensive plays and fast-paced gameplay. 

Making its India debut, MLBx: Mumbai will feature India’s T20 World Cup-winning captain and MLB Ambassador Suryakumar Yadav, alongside former MLB All-Stars Nick Swisher and Adrián González, with more participants to be announced soon.

Anil Makhija, COO – Live Entertainment & Venues, BookMyShow said, “We see the most compelling live experiences as those that give audiences something new to discover and experience together. MLBx Mumbai 2026 brings that to life by combining the excitement of Major League Baseball with a strong live music line-up featuring Badshah and KR$NA, creating a unique intersection of sport and entertainment. As MLBx’s first-ever event in India, it offers audiences a new way to experience a globally celebrated sport while bringing sports and music fans together around a shared live experience. We are excited to be part of this first-of-its-kind cultural moment in India.” 

The performances add to the growing scale of baseball’s presence in India, developed as part of RISE Worldwide’s collaboration with Major League Baseball to introduce Indian fans to the game through world-class sport and entertainment programming.
