Lalisom - 'India singing'

The band's maiden show was at the 2015 National Games of India. The band drew flak from the social media and some sections of the Malayalam film fraternity for charging an amount of 1.60 crore for its first show, later the show was also criticised for poor performance which included lip-syncing to a previously recorded audio tape.[6][7][8] Director Vinayan had criticized Mohanlal, who leads the band, for charging such a hefty amount, when Cricketer Sachin Tendulkar attended the function without charging any money.[9] Following the criticism, Mohanlal announced that he would be returning the cost of Rs 1.60 crore to Government of Kerala.[10] But the government rejected Mohanlal's offer saying that the heat generated by the event was quite regrettable and the Government’s morality would not allow it to take back the money. The government also said, Mohanlal had not personally benefitted from the amount (Rs 1.63 crore) which he received since it was meant to meet the stage expenses and remuneration for the artistes. But Mohanlal didn't take back the money he dispatched.[11] Many eminent personalities from film industry and apart came to support Mohanlal.[12][13][14] The band's next performance will involve nearly 40 hit songs of Mohanlal movies using hologram technology.[15]
