Opening up about making this video, he shares, “I was producing a song for someone, but couldn’t think of anything. While looking for inspiratio­n, I came across this clip and added some beats to it, just for fun. I never expected it to go viral!”

And even as his work is getting appreciate­d by filmmakers, including his favourite, Anurag Kashyap, So has he got any offers yet? “I’m in talks with a few people. I’m willing to work on everything that comes my way. Singing, mixing videos etc.; I hope I’ll continue doing good work!” he says.
