History

In 2003, Danish-Indian singer Navtej Singh Rehal (Naf)^[2] was introduced to the production duo known as WCA, which consisted of Thomas Sardorf and Janus Barnewitz. They jammed together and eventually formed the band Bombay Rockers, with Naf providing Punjabi and Hindi vocals and Sardorf singing in English. Barnewitz worked with the duo on production as well as initially managing the band.^[3][4]

Their first collaboration, "Ari Ari", got significant airplay in Denmark. In July 2003, Bombay Rockers went onstage with the EDM duo Filur at Roskilde Festival, in front of roughly 25,000 people.^[3]

"Sexy Mama", released in late 2003, was the first single from their debut album, Introducing; the track received airplay all over Denmark.^[3] The trio's next single, "Rock tha Party", became another major radio hit.^[3] It was featured in the 2016 action film Rocky Handsome. Introducing came out in 2005.

The group's second album, Crash and Burn, was released in 2007. Their third, Rock and Dhol, came out in 2011. It received positive reviews, and the singles "Lets Dance", "Nava Nava", and "Ishq" proved popular not only in Denmark but also in India and Pakistan.^[5]
