Apart from being a musician he also works as a driver. He plays all kinds of folk instruments and is majorly inclined towards playing Manjira. As a kid, he used to visit temples and see all the musicians singing songs about God and worship and that’s where he developed a taste in folk music. He gets inspiration from the calm and composed environment of the temples and places of worship. He does singing for his inner peace and describes the person who sings the folk tales as the one who’d never do wrong in his life. As per him, the bhajans describe the way of life of a folk artist. He states that the meaning of life is engraved within the lines of the bhajan.
