Music in the mall with the men in uniform 

It was all about music and fun at Quest on October 14 as the Eastern Air Command Band played a smashing set to celebrate Indian Air Force’s 85th anniversary, in association with The Telegraph. 

Armed with a powerful horn section of seven, among other instrumentalists, the band played Hindi hits like Khamoshiyan, Neele neele ambar par and Aye mere watan ke logon, along with English classics like Take Me Home, Country Roads, Hello and More Than I Can Say. In the background, the big screen played videos documenting the IAF’s feats and accomplishments over the years. 

Listeners gathered around them in the scores, joining in from the floors above, singing along to the music and participating in quiz competitions that saw their knowledge about the IAF being tested.
