It’s not just about hitting play. Here is a peek at the records, the gear, and the prep that goes into making every set hit the right vibe.

About Behind the Decks
It’s not just about hitting play. I spend hours digging through crates and prepping playlists because the transition between your favorite desi tracks and modern electronic beats needs to be seamless. Before the party starts, you’ll usually find me running a full sound check, making sure every frequency hits right, so that when the music drops, it’s pure energy.
Being a DJ is part performance and part logistics. When I’m not behind the decks at a club, I’m digging through records or curating tracks to match a specific vibe, whether that’s a high-octane Bollywood night or a chilled corporate sundowner. I always travel with my own gear, like my headphones and Rekordbox-analyzed USBs, because audio clarity is non-negotiable. If you’re hiring me, know that I treat your venue’s sound system with the same respect as my own. I’m based in Delhi but travel across India, meaning I’m used to adjusting my setup for different environments—from outdoor pool parties to indoor hotel ballrooms. It is all about reading the room and ensuring the energy stays consistent from the first song to the last.
