Group: Ashok Kumar and Group
A 40-year-old artist from the Ahir community of Banaras has been learning music through Biraha, Chaiti, and Phagua. He began to play Kartaal by taking inspiration from Ashok Kumar from his music group. He has been working hard towards achieving mastery in his craft and pursues it with soaring passion. He has performed in various locations within the state/country like Delhi, Mumbai, Allahabad, and Prayagraj. He has pulled off brilliant performances at music festivals only to dazzle the crowds and regards all his performances as the most memorable experience. He lives in a family of 5 people and has 2 sons and a daughter. Thus, he only performs music to make ends meet. Despite all his struggles, he strives to keep developing his craft and dreams to educate his audience about this artform. Someday in the future, he sees himself succeed through the art that he loves so much.
