What Revolution She Brought?
DJ Lahar noticed that DJ’s image is mostly linked with clubs, so she wanted to do something out of the box. She noticed that there were many females who perform DJ’s in clubs, whereas mostly males perform in weddings or at any occasions. So she started performing in weddings and occasions to fulfill the gap of female DJ’s in weddings because as per DJ Lahar weddings is very sacred occasion where two families become a part of each other, so it needs to be perfect whether it is food, decorations, arrangements or DJ for the proper satisfaction of the guests.
