About Raw & Unplugged: From My Living Room
For these unplugged sets, I keep the setup minimal—just me and an instrument, or sometimes a guest pianist. It is perfect for house parties or intimate evenings where you want the music to be part of the vibe, not just loud background noise. I love interacting with the crowd during these smaller sessions, so expect plenty of requests and sing-alongs.
When I am not on a big stage, I love getting back to the basics with these raw, acoustic covers. This format is all about connection—stripping back the production to let the lyrics and melody really land. Whether it is a soft rendition of a romantic ballad like 'Zara Zara' or a fun, stripped-back take on a trending track, I adapt the mood to suit your room.
Why choose an acoustic session?
These sessions are tailored for intimate spaces. If you are hosting a cozy dinner, a Mehendi function, or a small corporate mixer, a full band can sometimes overwhelm the space. An unplugged setup brings a sophisticated, soulful energy that allows your guests to actually talk and enjoy the music without having to shout over drums or bass.
How I work
For these bookings, I can perform solo with my backing tracks or bring along a talented instrumentalist (guitar or piano). My setup is compact and requires very little space, making it ideal for venues where logistics are a concern. I have spent years training my voice to handle both the technical intricacies of ghazals and the casual charm of modern pop, so I can easily curate a setlist that matches the specific energy of your event. If you have a favorite song you want to hear live, just let me know—I love taking requests during these relaxed sessions.
