Asees Kaur

Asees Kaur is the artist you book when your guest list is not exclusively Punjabi. That distinction matters more than people expect. A Punjabi wedding in Delhi, Mumbai or Dubai typically includes a substantial number of guests who do not speak the language, and a purely Punjabi setlist can leave them politely watching from the edges. Asees bridges that gap effortlessly: Raataan Lambiyan, Ve Maahi, Bolna and Chogada are national songs that everyone in the room knows, while her Gurbani training and Punjabi releases keep her authentically rooted.

Her live show is vocal-led and melodic rather than percussive. She performs beautifully with a live band, and her range across romantic ballads, upbeat Garba and Punjabi pop means a single set can cover a reception’s whole emotional arc. For a corporate gala, a brand night or a large destination wedding where production values are high, she is one of the strongest playback bookings in the country.

That national profile drives her availability. She is based in Mumbai, records constantly for Hindi cinema, and tours the corporate and college circuit heavily. Peak Indian wedding season from November to February is competitive; award season and film promotion cycles block additional dates. Plan two to four months ahead for an Indian booking and three to six for an overseas one.

On pricing, the drivers are city tier, venue, date, set length and band configuration. A 45-minute reception segment with a compact band and a 90-minute corporate concert with full production are very different quotes. Sound, lighting, travel, hospitality and applicable taxes typically sit outside the artist fee, and we set them out clearly. Our guide on how much it costs to book a Punjabi singer gives realistic comparisons across every artist tier.

There is one further consideration worth raising early. Because many of her biggest songs are duets – Raataan Lambiyan with Jubin Nautiyal, Ve Maahi with Arijit Singh, Bolna with Arijit – organisers sometimes want a co-singer on stage. That is possible but changes the fee and the technical rider considerably. Decide this before you request a quote rather than after.

For context on collaborators and industry rates, our feature on B Praak’s concert fees covers another Punjabi artist who crossed into Bollywood, and our roundup of the top 15 Punjabi female singers places her among the genre’s leading voices.

Book her for the room where everyone should be able to sing along. Our team at Book Punjabi Singer handles availability, contracts, band coordination and hospitality from enquiry to encore.
