Though I still feel the journey has just started, I have had the privilege of singing for some of the legendary composers in Bollywood and as well as the south music industry. I will always be grateful to Gulraj Singh as his song that I had sung in the movie Tutiya Dil caught the ears of the great Amit Trivedi and then Ishaqzaaade came in to my life, since then I have had no complaints as how my career has shaped up. Grateful to Sachin-Jigar, Priya Saraiya with whom I have spent some glorious years of my musical journey and it still continues and wish it never ends. Grateful to all my fellow artists and musicians for inspiring me to be a better artists everyday. Grateful to all my fans and friends for showering so much love to the songs I have been a part of and also I am Grateful to my parents, they are the reason for whatever good has happened to me. My whole family has been my biggest support, I hope my grandfather Pt.Shivram is a little proud of me. I believe years are not enough , I wish to continue and celebrate my music everyday and till the last year of my life”.
