The Music of Destiny YASSER DEASI
TMM|September 2021
Yasser Desai started singing at an early age but never thought that one day he will become a celebrated playback singer, who will be recognized for his unique style and voice quality. As a firm believer of destiny, he prefers to work hard, eat, and sleep well and says, “I can’t plan, whatever is in destiny, it will happen, so why worry?” From working in a research lab to creating soul-touching tracks at the recording studio, Yasser has come a long way. In conversation with TMM, he talks about this journey, inspiration, and why he thinks that the judges of singing reality shows have a bigger role to play in the world of the music industry.
The Music of Destiny YASSER DEASI

When did singing happen to you?

I started singing at the age of 10. My grandmother used to ask me to sing ‘Ae Mere Watan Ke Logon’ and slowly I started loving singing. Later, when I was working for a research lab and was doing a couple of singing projects, someone from the music industry heard me and I got a chance to audition for playback singing and soon a couple of my songs were locked and since then, there has been no looking back.

Your Instagram profile reads, “Gaana gaata Hoon, khaana khaata Hoon, khub sota Hoon!”. So how is Yaseer as a person?

I am a guy next door, who loves to create a balance between earning his livelihood, eat good food, and sleep well to stay energetic. However, due to my hectic work life, my sleep cycle is a bit weird these days, otherwise, I am exactly what my Instagram bio says. Also, I love to play football, read books, and spend time with family and friends.

Tell us about your first professional singing assignment. What was it and how was the experience?

STAYING AWAKE WITH NO SLEEP!

Love gin? Who doesn’t, right? Well, think of the lovely, crisp Greater Than gin and add your other favourite brew, coffee from Sleepy Owl to it and what you have is a combination that just won’t let you sleep! But guess what, No Sleep is a gin that is worth staying awake for. Available as a limited edition release, this gin contains no sugar, coffee extracts or artificial flavours. The cold brew is made using 100 per cent Arabica coffee from Chikmaglur, Karnataka and added to the gin. The result is a burst of flavours with the taste of red cherries, followed by salted caramel and finishing with hints of delicately-spiced pink peppercorn. Anand Virmani, co-founder and distiller at Nao Spirits shares his thoughts on this cool collaboration.
