Guru Randhawa to Perform at Electric Daisy Carnival With Steve Aoki
The Electric Daisy Carnival Orlando is taking place from November 6 to 8 at the historic Tinker Field in Orlando, Florida. Steve Aoki is headlining the festival’s second day on November 7, with Guru Randhawa set to join him for part of his performance.
The two musicians will present the Sirra remix, which reimagines Guru’s original Punjabi track as a high-energy dance anthem. The collaboration combines Punjabi pop melodies with electronic music, creating a crossover sound for international festival audiences.
Speaking about his EDC debut, Guru Randhawa said, “Representing India and our sound on the EDC mainstage is a massive honour. Steve Aoki and I have built something special with the Sirra remix that completely fuses two very distinct worlds.”
He added that he was looking forward to performing at the festival before his upcoming homecoming stadium show in New Delhi.
Steve Aoki also expressed excitement about the collaboration, saying that electronic music is about breaking boundaries and bringing cultures together. He described having Guru Randhawa join him on the EDC main stage as an incredible experience and said November 7 would be unforgettable.
What Is the Sirra Remix?

According to the figures shared with the announcement, Sirra has accumulated 356 million streams and 550 million YouTube views. The official remix by Steve Aoki, facilitated by Warner Music India, is now available on major music streaming platforms.

Sirra Lyrics Controversy: What Happened?
The original Sirra track also attracted controversy over its lyrics, which some listeners described as offensive. The song became the subject of legal proceedings following objections to its content.
