He shared his family background and his musical journey with us. We also got privilage to listen his newly composed Gazal live face to face.

" Ankh se dil me'n yun chehra ye utarta jaaye

apni julfo'n ko htatha hai vo dhire dhire,
chand jaise koi ghtaao'n se ubharta jaaye"


His Mother Zahida Ji carry's a beautiful and adorable heart. She treated me like her daughter and showered lot of blessings and her love on me. we spent hours together and shared our poetic and musical thoughts with each other.
