How did your tryst with singing happen?
The love for music has always run in my family. My father and mother used to sing, but not professionally. My father's older brother is a Carnatic teacher and his younger brother sings for our band Thaikkuddam Bridge. My sister writes songs for the band and my cousin Govind Vasanth is a singer too. My own brother, who lives in London has a band there. As a kid, I would listen to a lot of music and even perform in temples in Kerala. In fact, the first time I sang a Malayalam song was at the ISKCON temple in Mumbai and I ended up winning a prize. I started singing when I was in the first standard and sang in school competitions and youth festivals.
