Being a DJ isn't just about the two hours behind the console. It is about the airport runs, the sound checks, and finding a moment to breathe before the bass drops. Here is a glimpse into my life on the move.

About On The Road: A DJ's Life

When I am not behind the decks, I am usually in transit. Whether it is trains, flights, or that Mumbai auto-rickshaw office of mine, touring taught me that every venue needs a different energy. I do not just show up and play. I arrive early for sound checks because bad acoustics can kill even the best set, and my priority is making sure the dancefloor feels the music the way I do.
