‘Music is food for the soul’
I did not know the above quote to have a lot of substance but I knew it was true, perhaps not to everyone but to me. One may call me a music lover, or rather a music enthusiast, but I know the importance of this phenomenon (that’s music) in my life & that’s what perhaps connects me so deeply to ‘AntarDhvani’ and the strength of this bond lies in the common thread of music that binds us together. Imagine forgetting the world and coming together to create the most mesmerizing and enchanting compositions and feeling them from deep within.

My passion for music is not blind and unreasonable and in fact AntarDhvani provides me with the correct platform to live my passion. AntarDhvani brings together people
who love music but at the same time are very successful in their respective careers. I have not given up the world to live my passion. Instead I chose to let my music be my driving force in whatever I do. If I may start talking about how much this band has taught me, the words existing in vocabulary will fail me. It all began when Nishant, our dear lyricist (I owe you buddy), introduced me to Mukesh (a.k.a. Munnu), now the lead guitarist. And then there was no looking back. Each one of my fellow band members have been a source of knowledge to me. I may not have had a professional training in this field but not for a second did I feel restrained. They taught me everything I wanted to learn.

y talented Munnu, who taught me the magnitude of passion in performance, while on the other Sumeet taught me what it takes to be a musician. Nishant da was always a source of encouragement while Ravee, my lovely instructor has been a dear friend. Vishal and Tuheen are probably the pillars of fusion. All of them taught me what rhythm meant and how fusion was created. From the technical details to the performing aspect, all that I know today is because of my fellow band members.

As a percussionist I have discovered myself and have only grown as a musician. Playing with the band is an experience of extreme learning where with each performance my horizon widens. True to its name, AntarDhvani made me understand myself by making me listen to my inner voice, my conscience. It might 
be small performance at an alumni meet or a big concert with a huge crowd, each time makes me a better human being.
We are an amateur group, but we do not seek fame or fortune. We play because we like to. We play because we want to learn. We play because it feeds our souls.

We play…
to discover ourselves, to be us.
Long Live AntarDhvani.
