‘Jaadoo Bastar’ was born from a journey undertaken by Mumbai's Art-rock band 'Daira' as they traveled to the heart of Bastar, Chhattisgarh. Bastar, a place known for its art and culture, has seen its cultural treasures fading away with time. Jaadoo Bastar aims to celebrate the rich heritage of Bastar through music and research.
In Bastar, Daira met some local musicians, forming a bond that transcended linguistic and cultural barriers. Together, they selected five folk songs in three distinct languages- Gondi, Bhatri, and Halbi, each melody carrying stories of generations past. Delving deep into the essence of these songs, Hindi lyrics were written and five new tracks were created that seamlessly blend the beauty of folk and modern music. Every step of the journey was documented, capturing the essence of local creativity and the beautiful world of Bastar, for the world to see.

Daira is a rock-band from Mumbai. Formed in 2014, Daira has been spreading Awadhi Rock ‘n Roll across the country.
The second full length album ‘Vipreet Buddhi’ has released recently.
The album is a satirical take on the various influences and actions caused by wrong intelligence.
The album branched out of mere spontaneity, and was not laid down with a specific concept or idea in mind. Vipreet Buddhi is Daira in their most honest form.
