Usha Uthup and Raghav Sachar will join hands with other popular Indian artists for the `Hope and Believe` virtual concert on 29th May, 2021. The voluntary fundraiser event, which is free to attend, not only aims to provide much-needed respite via live music during the pandemic, but also to raise funds for the Bhumi COVID-19 relief campaign. The event is organized by Artkonnect and Brandaid Events, with support from MPL Sports Foundation and RedFM. It will be broadcasted live on all the organizers’ Facebook pages as well as the MTV India Music Summit’s Facebook.

The second wave of Covid-19 in India has been devastating, leading to fear, panic, loss of lives, and a vacuum for many. Facing daily hardships, surrounded by adverse news, and being restricted to extended lockdowns has resulted in widespread loss of hope and spirit among people. This pandemic has been even worse for the most vulnerable sections of the society who are struggling to fulfil their basic essential and medical needs.
