Bangladeshi-born international music producer and DJ Sanjoy, together with Bollywood actress and singer Nora Fatehi, delivered a vibrant live performance on the “Third Hour” segment of NBC’s widely watched daytime programme Today Show, captivating audiences and bringing a World Cup celebration to American television.
The pair appeared as featured guests during a special sports-themed edition of the programme, where they performed the FIFA World Cup anthem “Sir Sir”. Their energetic stage presence, combined with dynamic music and choreography, quickly became one of the standout moments of the broadcast and earned enthusiastic reactions from viewers both in the studio and across social media.
Built around Sanjoy’s distinctive blend of electronic dance music and contemporary pop, the performance showcased the producer’s ability to fuse international musical styles with South Asian influences. Nora Fatehi complemented the production with powerful vocals and her trademark choreography, creating a visually engaging performance that reflected the festive spirit of football’s biggest global tournament.
Before taking the stage, Nora spoke with the programme’s hosts about what it meant to participate in an event linked to the world’s most celebrated sporting competition.
“It’s truly an incredible and proud feeling,” she said. “Football is a sport that brings people from all over the world together. To be part of that celebration through music is a wonderful experience.”
Footage shared widely on social media captured Sanjoy performing from behind his keyboard and mixing console, confidently leading the live production with his signature sound. A troupe of dancers carrying the flags of different nations accompanied the performance, reinforcing the international character of the World Cup and highlighting the unifying power of music and sport.
As the performance gathered momentum, its infectious rhythm drew the programme’s presenters onto the stage. Joining Sanjoy, Nora and the dancers, the hosts celebrated alongside the performers, creating a lively finale that delighted the studio audience and added to the festive atmosphere.
Sanjoy’s appearance on one of the United States’ most recognised daytime television programmes represents another important milestone in his steadily expanding international career. Born in Bangladesh before later moving to the United States, he has established himself as a respected producer, DJ and composer by combining Western pop and EDM with musical traditions inspired by South Asia. His growing catalogue of international collaborations and commercially successful releases has helped build a reputation that extends across multiple global music markets.
Nora Fatehi, meanwhile, has developed a strong international following through her work in Indian cinema, music videos and live performances. Known for her versatility as a performer, she has frequently collaborated on cross-cultural musical projects that appeal to audiences beyond South Asia.
Their joint appearance on NBC’s Today Show highlighted not only the global reach of contemporary music but also the increasing visibility of artists with South Asian roots on major international television platforms. The performance demonstrated how music can transcend borders, bringing together diverse cultures in celebration of one of the world’s most widely followed sporting events while further strengthening Sanjoy’s growing presence on the international stage.
