Tanishq Audio is Set to Make History with Self-Produced Flagship Show ‘Pop That Cherry’ in Nagpur tomorrow.

Independent music is about to hit a new milestone as Nagpur’s very own Tanishq Audio prepares to host his self-produced flagship show, Pop That Cherry, at The Empress Palace, Nagpur, on November 1, 2025.

This isn’t just another gig. It’s a statement of intent — an independent artist creating, producing, and performing his own large-scale show without relying on traditional industry machinery.

A First for Nagpur’s Independent Scene

For a long time, India’s live music culture has been dominated by events from Mumbai, Delhi, and Bangalore. With Pop That Cherry, Tanishq Audio is putting Nagpur on the national map. The show is set to deliver high-energy performances, slick production, and an immersive experience that matches any big-city concert.

“It’s about taking ownership of your art, your brand, and your sound,” Tanishq shared in a recent post. “Nagpur deserves a platform where independent talent can shine without waiting for validation from outside.”

The event will feature Tanishq Audio himself as the headliner, joined by acts like Kayvee and DJ Nitish (Nitish Wadhwa) — artists who share his drive for originality and self-made artistry.

The Birth of an Independent IP

What makes this event truly unique is that it’s not organized by a promoter or event company. Pop That Cherry is an artist-owned IP, conceptualized and executed entirely by Tanishq and his team.

Earlier this year, Nagpur Today reported on the concept as a new “alternative-genre IP,” hinting at a series of pop-culture-driven shows curated by the artist himself. The November 1 show is the first public unveiling of that vision.

With this, Tanishq joins a small but growing list of Indian musicians building their own brands and show properties — something rarely seen outside the metro circuits.

The Venue and Experience

The Empress Palace, located on Wardha Road, is known for hosting some of Nagpur’s most high-profile events. Tomorrow night, it transforms into a stage for a different kind of energy — a youth-driven, independent showcase that blends music, style, and self-expression.

The production setup promises to be one of the most ambitious ever attempted by a regional artist, with top-tier sound, lighting, and visual effects designed to give Nagpur audiences a true festival-level experience.

Why This Matters

Pop That Cherry could easily become a case study in how independent artists can take charge of their creative direction.

Ownership: Tanishq controls every aspect — from the concept and lineup to branding and ticketing.

Representation: It shows that great music movements don’t have to originate from major metros.

Inspiration: If successful, the model could inspire artists across Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities to build their own live IPs instead of waiting for a label or sponsor.

A Benchmark Moment

For Nagpur, the event isn’t just entertainment — it’s history in the making. A homegrown artist is setting a benchmark for what’s possible when talent, ambition, and creative independence come together.

Tomorrow night, all eyes will be on The Empress Palace as Tanishq Audio lights up the stage with his flagship event. For India’s independent music movement, this could be the moment that changes how we define success.
