Sagardan Gadhvi Program in UK London: The soulful voice behind the viral song “Sonal Maa Vaheli Aavshe” is now all set to echo across London. Bhavnagar’s proud musical gem, Sagardan Gadhvi, is heading to the United Kingdom for his first-ever international folk music program — marking a historic moment for Gujarati folk lovers living abroad.
From Bhavnagar to London: A Cultural Milestone
For the very first time, Sagardan Gadhvi will perform live in the UK, spreading the true essence of Gujarat’s folk traditions. Two grand Lok Dayra programs have been scheduled — one on October 24 at Wembley and another on October 26 in Leicester.
Expressing his joy, Sagardan shared that while he has performed across India and abroad, this will be his first-ever folk event in the UK. The Gujarati community in London and Leicester is already filled with excitement, eagerly waiting to welcome their favorite artist on foreign soil.
In Bhavnagar, Sagardan’s family, friends, and fans are equally thrilled. The announcement has created a wave of pride and anticipation, especially among those who have witnessed his journey from small-town performances to international fame.
A Star Loved by Gen Z and Folk Music Fans
Known for his deep connection to Gujarati folk literature and music, Sagardan Gadhvi has emerged as one of the most popular young folk artists of this generation. His performances beautifully blend traditional themes with a modern touch that resonates with both youth and elders alike.
Songs like “Mogal Aavshe Re” and “Sonal Maa Vaheli Aavshe” have become cultural anthems. In particular, “Sonal Maa Vaheli Aavshe” — written by poet Kavi Kedar and sung by Sagardan in collaboration with Jignesh Barot — has struck a deep emotional chord with audiences. The song’s soulful lyrics on patience, self-reflection, and devotion have made it a favorite at every event.
Sagardan himself says, “This song is so close to my heart that every time I perform, the audience makes me sing it three or four times. Youths connect deeply with it — its message touches their souls.”
Journey from First Dayra to Global Stage
Sagardan’s journey began humbly in 2011 when he performed his first Lok Dayra in Vartej, a small town near Bhavnagar. That performance was organized by his brother-in-law Dildudan Gadhvi, who offered him ₹500 as his first earning. “I still have those 500 rupees safe with me,” Sagardan fondly recalls.
From that small-town debut, he steadily rose to become one of Gujarat’s most loved folk voices. His dedication, simplicity, and devotion to Maa Mogal have made him an icon among lovers of Gujarati culture.
Gujarati Community in the UK Prepares a Grand Welcome
The Gujarati diaspora in London is leaving no stone unturned to celebrate Sagardan Gadhvi’s arrival. The events are being organized by Siddharthbhai Ramanuj and his team under the “Gujarati Samaj UK” banner. Enthusiasm among fans is sky-high — every day, new videos surface online showing people expressing their excitement, preparing song requests, and planning to attend in traditional attire.
Messages like “Sagardanbhai, we’re ready to sing along!” and “Please perform Mogal Aavshe live for us!” are flooding social media platforms.

A Voice of Devotion and Culture
Sagardan Gadhvi is not just a singer — he is a storyteller, philosopher, and devotee whose songs breathe life into Gujarat’s rural heritage. His compositions and performances often pay tribute to Maa Mogal, the divine goddess worshiped widely across Saurashtra and Kutch.
His famous devotional tracks include:
- Mogal Aavshe
- Mogal Chhoru
- Machharali Mogal
Apart from devotional pieces, Sagardan has also performed Shiv Bhajans, Hanuman Chalisa, and several cultural Garba and Dandiya songs that showcase the energy and diversity of Gujarati traditions. This versatility has earned him the affectionate title of “Dandiya King.”
Performances with Gujarati Legends
Over the years, Sagardan Gadhvi has shared the stage with legendary artists such as Kirtidan Gadhvi, Mayabhai Ahir, and Rajbha Gadhvi. His YouTube channel has garnered millions of views, with fans from across the globe praising his energetic performances and emotionally charged lyrics.
Songs like “Aamara Haal Na Pucho” and “Jedi Samay Saath Chhode” continue to trend among youth, showcasing how deeply his music connects with real-life emotions and spiritual devotion.
London Awaits the Voice of Gujarat
As Sagardan Gadhvi prepares to bring his soulful tunes to Wembley and Leicester, the excitement among Gujaratis in the UK continues to grow. His concerts promise to be a perfect blend of rhythm, emotion, and devotion — celebrating the spirit of Gujarat far from home.
For those attending the Sagardan Gadhvi Program in UK London, the events will not just be musical evenings — they will be a celebration of faith, roots, and pride in Gujarati culture.
As the singer of “Sonal Maa Vaheli Aavshe” once said,
“When times are tough, remember Mogal Maa — She always comes early for her devotees.”
This October, those divine words will echo in London, carrying with them the love, music, and soul of Gujarat.
