feel my talent and potential is fully explored!

Ek Pyaar Ka Nagma from the film Shor.

All are my favourites. I am close to Kunal Ghanjawala and his wife Gayatri.
Current favourite song...
None really, I barely listen to music nowadays as I'm too busy creating it.
Most hated music...
I can never hate any form of music. I only feel that the use of certain
instruments could make some songs better.
Current favourite international new band/singer
I recently worked with and liked the music of Pakistani singer Javed Bashir
Irrespective of what ratings the reviewers on
numerous sites have given to Jodha Akbar.. the music of JA goes down in
history as one of the masterpieces in Indian music...
