Latin American multiple Grammy award singer Shakira arrived in Mumbai Saturday for her first hip-shaking Indian performance.
Shakira, who is on a world tour for her "Oral Fixation Vol. 2" album, performed some of her biggest hits including "Hips1 don't lie", "Don't bother" and "Illegal" at the concert Sunday night.
"I love India and its people. I have a lot of fans in India and love the culture and food," Shakira told reporters adding she was looking forward to her concert.
Best known for sensual belly2 dancing and her powerful voice, Shakira stayed in the presidential suite3 at a five-star hotel in Mumbai, media reports said.
The pop star will be pampered4 with her favourite exotic fruits -- papayas from Hawaii, peaches and prunes5 from Dubai and Australian berries, Mumbai's Mirror newspaper reported.
In the run-up to Shakira's arrival, local newspapers have carried many articles detailing how to learn the singer's dance moves.
Shakira, who won Grammy awards in 2001 and 2003, dominated the Latin Grammy awards last year, winning four trophies6, including album of the year for "Fijacion Oral Vol. 1".
