“Having attended a few recent performances by Rupesh Rawal, I was pleasantly surprised to discover how talented he is. Not only was he able to provide a varied range of music in several languages, Hindi, Punjabi, Gujarati and Swahili, but each performance was equally entertaining and unique. In this day and age, Rupesh Rawal exemplifies what the youth of today ought to emulate. It is nice to see that he has not lost his Indian cultural values and has not become out of touch with the foundation of our society. Music is a unique medium by which people of all races, age groups and varied backgrounds can communicate with each other and Rupesh is fortunate to posses the gift to bring people together. I have no doubt he will do well wherever he performs “

“I would like to sincerely thank Rupesh Rawal from the bottom of my heart. His performance at my wedding reception was amazing. My husband & I were very nervous at first but he encouraged us to open the floor. He performed with a lot of passion & enthusiasm. We danced the whole night till our feet were hurting. We can’t wait to invite him for our anniversary, which will be soon”
Simran Kapoor, Toronto, Canada
“I take this opportunity to kindly thank Rupesh Rawal for the highly entertaining (both musically and vocally) performances he has exhibited during his short tour of Chile. He not only entertained the older generation, but children as well. My family and friends have taken every opportunity to attend his shows. Wherever he may be performing, our hearts and good wishes will be with him. Keep up the good work.”

“Rupesh will forge ahead with his own style and earn his place in showbiz without riding on the heels of today’s hot male singers.”

“On behalf of the Gujarat Cultural Association of Nashville, TN, we would like to sincerely thank Rupesh Rawal for making our Diwali Program the most successful program in GCA history. In these many years of our association, we have never had our members dancing at any event. Usually our youngsters get bored by half-time of our entertainment programs. This is the first time that all our youngsters enjoyed the whole program. The highlight of the evening was the 2 hour Non-Stop dancing by our members. The most important thing I would like to point out is that the coordination of his performance was amazing. I would like to be honest, when we heard that there was only “one” artist in the group, we were skeptical about it. But the way Rupesh performed at our Diwali program, I must say that his performance is definitely the best we have seen in a long time.”
Gujarat Cultural Association, Nashville, Tennessee, USA
“Rupesh Rawal is an highly talented & cultured individual. His performance at our recent fund raising concert event for the Tsunami victims was a glorious success. He helped us raise about $220,000 in one evening. His performance had a lot of energy and he enthralled the audience with his spellbinding music and melodious voice. I find him highly professional and was impressed with his dedication and integrity. Even at a young age, he is quite mature and takes pride in his performance. Interestingly, in spite of being in the music industry, he follows ethical and spiritual values of ancient Indian Culture and we all should feel pride in having this humble star as part of our community”.
