Let’s turn your stories, memories, and poems into melodies. Whether you have just a thought or a full draft, I help shape it into a song that is uniquely yours.

About Original Songwriting & Composition
We start our process with a 45-minute conversation to capture the emotion, or 'Rasa', behind your lyrics. I don't just put music to words; I help you find the specific melody or chord progression that fits your narrative, whether you are looking for a modern acoustic ballad or a classic, rhythm-focused composition.
Music is how I make sense of life, and when we work together, we are building a piece of art that reflects your perspective. My songwriting process is deeply collaborative, designed to turn your vague ideas or scattered notes into a structured, meaningful song.
How We Can Work Together
- Lyrics: If you have emotions but no words, I help draft poetic lyrics in Kannada or Hindi. We focus on finding the right rhythm and flow so the song feels natural to sing.
- Composition: If you already have your lyrics, I work with you to find the melody. I use the guitar, ukulele, or keyboard to define the chord progression and structure, keeping the arrangement soulful and honest.
- Full Production: If you need a finished track for streaming or a portfolio, I handle the full production. From studio-quality vocal recording and mixing to layering instruments, I ensure the final file is ready for listeners.
I am based in Bengaluru and available for in-person sessions, which helps us dive deeper into the story you want to tell. Every song we create starts with your unique voice, and my job is to provide the canvas and the colors to bring it to life.
