Hailing from a family that has music inclination, tell us about your growing years and how you learnt from your dad
I have always been inclined towards music from a very early age and my father sensed that. He put me on to his aunt (Padma Narayanan) who is a music college professor from Trivandrum and I learnt Carnatic music from her. She laid the foundation for it. As I grew older, I also learnt western music vocals from Augustine Paul and finished eighth grades. My dad has been instrumental in influencing me, all though in all the years I grew up, he was really busy with recordings as it was the peak of his career. He only used to advise me every now and then.
What were some important things you learnt in your earlier days of learning music?
