ULTIMATE BHANGRA COMPETITION (UBC) ARTIST UPDATE

[Ultimate Bhangra (UBC)]

The Ultimate Bhangra Competition Executive Committee announced from the on-set of the competition that Malkit Singh was going to be giving a live special performance at the show. Unfortunately, due to circumstances beyond our control, Malkit is no longer able to perform at the show. As disappointing as that is, it does not take away from the show itself especially due to its phenomenal line-up and exquisite exhibition act. Since we found out about this, we have been working hard to arrange for an artist to perform at UBC and are proud to announce Sarbjit Cheema as the special performer. Sarbjit will also serving as a judge alongside Jesse, Ranjit and Sapan. We have also arranged for an after-party appearance by Sarbjit as well. Our sincerest apologies to everyone who was looking forward to seeing Malkit Singh perform in New York.

Yeah he started off with dancing but then he transitioned to singing if I'm not mistaken.

 

[jatt5ab1soorma]

[Temurzai]

dammit Malkit! oh well, Sarbjit Cheema gona be dope! 8)

 

[lavesh]

cheema used to be a dancer in india...from what i have heard, he's not the most knowledgeable judge (in comparison to an ustaad, per say), but i think he is more than capable of judging a bhangra competition...hes def judged a few competitions in india as well

n even tho malkit is a freakin legend, ubc being able to replace malkit with sarbjit cheema last second is sickkk....always wanted to see cheema live!

Is this only a music comp?
Are teams allowed to go live and be held under the same judging rubric?

No its music and live teams. I think it is the same judging rubric, even tho it probably shouldn't be.

Also Cheema is very talented dancer in terms of traditional bhangra.

 

[ENVY BANG-RUH]

Cheema would make a great judge, he was the team captian for his squad two years running, and they took home the trophy for the best Bhangra team in Punjab those two years as well.

 

[KushK]

shocking.

 

[AnkurK]

Cheema is also a good artist

 

[gabroo_punjabi]

Yup you right and he was captain for few teams in India

 

[sonehdataweet]

Since everyone's putting random facts about Cheema: Cheema's wife's from my dad's pind

UBC is going to be FOLK! Malkit would of killed Tutak Tutak Tutak Tutiyah

 

[RAJ22]

ithe!


eh folk ah!

 

[MPElive]

Ithe Rakh.. Cheema is a great live artist and correct me if I am wrong, he did judge a competition in Toronto few years ago and it would be an honour for anyone to judge alongside Cheema Bhaji. Good luck to all the teams competing at this competition.

 

[hardeep_singh]

i hope he sings jhoomer on stage, absolutely nasty song

kani nathia siraan de utay shamley
mundey lagde ne puray jatt jamley
ni bhangreych paunday ludia ni billo raniye
ethay RAKH ETHAY

honestly, i'm more excited bout cheema ji than i was about malkit.
