- Aakash Ghadge

Born and brought up in the capital city of Goa, Emmanuel completed his preliminary studies at Rosary High School and his secondary education at St. Xavier's College, Mapusa. He later pursued a career in music and is now an established singer, songwriter, and producer.

"I am a singer-songwriter and producer, born, raised, and based in Goa, India," Emmanuel said. He added that he studied at The Rosary School in Miramar, followed by Don Bosco Higher Secondary School in Panjim. "I graduated from St. Xavier's College, Mapusa, with a Bachelor's Degree in Mass Communication."

Talking about his background and entry into the field of music, Emmanuel shared that music was always a part of his life, thanks to being brought up in a musically inclined family. "My parents told me that when I was 4 years old, I used to sing along to classical music cassettes or CDs that they would play, and I suppose that's when this whole journey began," he said. "Around the time when I was 6, I'd sit at the piano trying to sing and figure out the chords to my favorite songs. At the age of 7, my parents enrolled me in classical violin lessons at Kala Academy, and being in that space opened my mind to realizing could potentially have a future in music," he narrated.
