Behind the Scenes & Artist Collaborations
Music is about connection, whether it is sharing a stage with incredible artists or jamming with my musical family. Here is a peek at the rhythm and energy behind my journey.

About Behind the Scenes & Artist Collaborations
When I walk into a venue with my band, Saaz-e-Mehfil, it is rarely just about the setlist. You will notice in these photos that music is a collaborative language, whether I am backing a singer like B Praak or syncing with my own bandmates, the energy comes from listening to each other. When you book me for your event, you get that same collaborative spirit. I do not just play the tabla, I sync with your DJ or band to make sure the rhythm elevates every moment of your show.
Building the Right Vibe
Music is a conversation. When I perform at events, my job is to listen as much as I play. Whether I am supporting a live vocalist or providing the percussion for a high-energy DJ set, the chemistry on stage is what makes the difference. Many clients ask me how I adapt to different artists. The secret is simple, it is about respecting the rhythm, whether it is a soulful Sufi kalaam or an upbeat Bollywood mashup.
Working with My Musical Family
I am lucky to work with some of the best talent in the industry. These photos represent the hours of practice, soundchecks, and the shared passion that happens before the crowd even enters the room. Being part of the Saaz-e-Mehfil ensemble has taught me that a performance is only as good as the team behind it. We bring that same level of coordination to your private parties, sangeets, and festivals.
What This Means for Your Event
When you hire a percussionist who regularly collaborates with other artists, you get more than just a musician. You get someone who understands technical riders, stage layouts, and the flow of a live show. Whether we are setting up in a banquet hall in Delhi or an open-air festival space, I bring the experience of hundreds of gigs to your doorstep. If you want a performance that feels natural, professional, and full of life, let us start a conversation about what you need.
