DJ AJ says techno is slowly gaining ground at Indian weddings

On the evening  of December 26, 2017, when Arjun Shah aka DJ AJ reached Lower Parel’s St Regis hotel  to play at a wedding, he had no knowledge about the couple in question. “I was in touch with the wedding planning agency throughout the discussions. They had made me sign an NDA [non disclosure agreement], so I didn’t know who I was playing for,” says the 33-year-old. No sooner was he behind the console, than a host of high profile guests started trooping in—cricketers, actors and politicians. “It finally dawned on me that I was at skipper Virat Kohli and actor Anushka Sharma’s wedding!” he laughs. 

Being a die-hard cricket fan, Shah admits it was overwhelming to see Shikhar Dhawan, Gautam Gambhir, Zaheer Khan, Suresh Raina and Kohli get to the dancefloor. “Sachin [Tendulkar], too, danced for a bit. I remember it was a wild, fun night.”
