At a time when India is being ravaged by multiple natural disasters, there's a constant need for relief funds. Taking cue from this, musicians have been coming together for the last seven years whether it was the floods in Kerala and Uttarakhand, or the Nepal earthquake.

This edition of Play for a Cause is bigger than ever before. It will showcase 100 gigs that go live simultaneously across 27 cities to support 15 different causes. "We had the first edition on Parikrama's 22nd birthday, and we've covered many causes over the years — including the Robin Hood Army, where we gave stuff away and didn't just give money," shares Subir Malik, founder and keyboardist of Parikrama, who's been bringing this initiative together over the years.
