A live music evening held as part of our Republic Day 2026 celebrations in Riga, featuring performances by SurVarsha.

SurVarsha took the stage in Riga and played a set that moved through a nice mix — some lively numbers, some quieter ones. The kind of performance where you could tell the musicians were genuinely enjoying themselves.
What made it feel good was the crowd — people who came out for a shared evening and ended up enjoying both the music and each other's company.
The concert was part of our Republic Day 2026 celebrations. It was a chance for the Indian community in Riga to come together and enjoy some live music — something that doesn't always happen often enough when you're living abroad.
The atmosphere was warm and easy. People genuinely seemed happy to be there.

An Evening of Unity, Honour, and Cultural Pride
Sindoor Samman brought together members of the Indian community in Latvia for an evening of celebration and connection — a chance to honour shared heritage and spend time with familiar faces.
Held in Riga, it was a relaxed and welcoming evening, with people from different backgrounds coming together around food, culture, and conversation.

We were glad to welcome an All-Party Parliamentary Delegation from India, whose presence added real significance to the evening and made for some genuinely good conversations.

Sindoor Samman was a good evening. People talked, shared a meal, and felt at home for a few hours — which, when you're living abroad, means quite a bit.
We're grateful to the Embassy and Her Excellency for the opportunity to host.
Some evenings stay with you.
Sindoor Samman is one of them.
