I NEVER THOUGHT OF ANYTHING ELSE APART FROM MUSIC

Love and music are inevitable. The most awaited film Radhe Shyam starring Prabhas and Pooja Hegde is slated to release this March. The music has given goosebumps to all the music lovers even before the release. Here's more on the making of the Radhe Shyam song from the musician himself.

Would you like to share your childhood memories in Madurai and how did you choose music as your career?

I never thought of anything else apart from music and it brought me here. I was surrounded by music from my childhood days like school band, church and where ever I go. During my college days I realised that you can turn your passion into a profession and learned music.

When did you start playing instruments?

I didn't have any instruments in my early days but I tried playing guitar, piano, harmony box during my school days at Church. But wherever I see an instrument I wanted to play it.

During this lockdown, Radhe Shyam film has created a huge response. Share your experience working for this big film.

It was a great experience working for the film Radhe Shyam. We travelled for two years and the film came through Dear Comrade director. Also Prabhas liked the song 'Kadalalle' from the film so that's how I came to the project. It's a love subject so it will surely create an impact among the audience.

All your love songs have become a chartbuster. How do you feel?

Love is an emotion and the job of a musician is to give that love a emotion to the people so that is how I see this journey. Somehow love travels from my first film and I feel happy about it.
