I was born on 21st February in Delhi. My attitude has always been to do something creative, something which always attracted me to my childhood and youth and to follow in the footsteps of my idols, the great national and international singer's. My Gurus.... Music is in my veins. My late father, Shri Brij Mohan, was a singer himself. He unearthed the talent in me at the early age of three and encouraged me to pursue singing. I started learning classical and semi-classical from Guru Shri Laxmi Naryan ji. My Singing.... I did my schooling in Delhi and from very first day my music teacher acknowledged the singing talent in me. I started participating at regional and national level school competitions, which contributed a lot to boosting my confidence. At the age of 5, I started giving public performances on stage all over Delhi. Studio & Stage.... I consider my self a singer first and then a performer, however, it is my fans' opinion that on stage I am electrifying. Yes, one thing about being on stage is that you are always on your toes and never relaxed as a little mistake can be embarrassing. I usually enjoy more with the public because rewards are received in the same moment. About My New Album CHUPKE SE.... This was the best opportunity in my singing career and I grabbed it with both hands. The Music Director of this Album is Chander Kamal and lyrics are penned by well-known poets like Sajan Sehri. We all worked hard and tried and tried to give this album all colors of life such as: happiness, joy, fun and romantic songs to make it complete. The video, which was shot in Dhanolty, is the title song of this album, "Chupke Se " It is a light and romantic song. After the positive response of this song, GTM Music Company decided to shoot one more video from the same album. This brought on some difficulty for the company as they were not able to decide which song to picture, as all of the songs are simply great. After a long discussion, Mr. Tushar Kumar (Vice-Chairman cum MD GTM Group) decided to picture one more song from this album.
