We have seen the reel story of Ye Raat, what is the real story behind the song, how did it come to existence ?


"The reel story consists of two thieves, primarily a couple who decide to loot a rich single guy that recently came in the town, the real story is actually in a different lane, so I met this girl when I was in Mumbai, it was a beautiful eve, and that's how the line struck my mind - yunhi kisi shaam ko mai tumse mil gaya tha."

Who is your favourite artist and why ?


Ed Sheeran, since I was a kid. I was mesmerised by the thought on how an artist can write, compose and sing all on its own, I was awestruck and that's how the idea came into my mind to do everything on my own."


What is your take on the music industry these days ?


"The music industry these days is a pretty torn out place to be exact. The industry has fallen down from its standards particularly because of all these streaming platforms that have appeared in the picture."

And how do you position yourself into it ?


"I would say I'm currently in the growing phase. I'm learning everyday as an artist, new things, emotions that I can implement more in the music that I make."


Tell us about your song chanda which was a massive success, how did it come to existence


"The story about Chanda is how the songwriter in me came into existence. I had written three songs before that, two of which haven't been released yet. The moon is always a centre of attention from all the lovers around this world. So when I fell for a girl, she told me moon was her favourite thing, in every conversation, or photos that we exchanged moon ultimately became a regular part of the conversation, sometimes even more important than me.So I wrote this line for her- Tujhko chanda se aa mai chura lu which ultimately turned into a song"


What all instruments do you play


"I'm pretty good at Guitar, apart from that I play Piano as well."

What is the unique x-factor that you see in yourself


"The X- factor in me would be that I can write and compose a fresh song within minutes. So there was time during covid in early 2021, I was stressed, heartbroken, so much ripped from inside that I locked myself in my room in Mumbai, for 2 months and wrote 42 songs, it was crazy but at that time I couldn't realise what I had done until months later."


Apart from music what other creative things are you in ?


"Apart from music I'm a writer, poet and a software engineer.I have been featured in two poetry books and currently working on a realistic fiction novel."

Tell us more about your love life


"I'd not like to discuss my personal life over here, rather I'd use a quote I wrote a long time ago- An artist should never succumb to a cordial emotion."


That's pretty Deep. One last question, are we gonna see all your coming up tracks on your ex's or we gonna see some commercial stuff poppin up soon for the fans ?


"Pretty sure you'll see a lot of tracks from my side, It'll be a mix of both commercial and personal journey ones."


We wish you all the best for your upcoming projects on Pop Nation and Beyond.


"Thank you soo much guys"
