Armaan, Arijit & Kapil top performers at Wembley

Armaan Malik, Arijit Singh and Kapil Sharma have found themselves in the record books by being the first Indian performers to feature in the 2016 Top Ten performances at SSE Wembley Arena, London. Following a public vote for the SSE Live Awards, which celebrates live performances at various UK venues, the three performers gained the high number of votes to earn themselves the coveted positions.

Malik, Singh and Sharma all held shows at the SSE Wembley Arena last year and ranked fourth, seventh and ninth respectively.  DNA India reported Malik was honoured by the recognition following his debut performance at Wembley as part of his international tour. “I performed at Wembley on September 24, 2016. It’s a date etched in my memory for life. To be able to do a solo international tour at the age of 21 was a huge deal for me, getting the opportunity to perform at Wembley was a blessing. It also proved that age is not a barrier, all that is needed to excel is talent and hard work”, he said.

Over three million votes were cast for all performances across the SSE venues over a month, with the results announced in February.
