What is the importance of music in the life of both of you?

Answer/Poem- I think our life cannot be imagined without music. From waking up in the morning to sleeping at night, there is almost always music. My existence is related to music. When there were neither shows nor any performance during Kovid, we continued to rehearse. At that time, many times it was thought that if there was no music, what would I do. To be honest, I do not know anything other than music.

Answer/Kanishka – To be honest, I, mother and my brother, all three of us cannot think of their existence without music. I have grown up in the music atmosphere since childhood. But the mother’s story is slightly different. No one else in his family was associated with music, yet he had deep passion for music. She always wanted to learn more. We means me and my elder brother have seen music at home since childhood. This is the reason why the imagination of life without music is not possible for us.

When did you awaken interest in music? Did you adopt music just because of a family tradition?

Answer/Kanishka- I would like to give credit to my parents for stepping into the world of music. Initially, I was inspired by my mother and father. First I started learning violin, then took training in Western Classical Music and Music Production.

In childhood, my mind often felt more in sports. As soon as it was five o’clock in the evening, I used to go to play. But one day suddenly a different sense of music was awakened within me. When I first made a tune of my own, I realized that music is a very beautiful and magical thing. That moment changed my thinking. After that I never looked back, and since then this music-affair started, which continues even today.

How difficult it was for you to raise children after untimely demise of her husband?

But the responsibilities became very high simultaneously. Children’s education, house care, focus on career and also repay the loan. It was not easy to do everything together. It felt like a mountain had broken.

But slowly I handled myself. That difficult time taught me that no matter how challenging the circumstances are, if we take them positive, then the same experience makes us even stronger.

The tune sat perfectly accurate on that composition. After this, the mother told me that we should build an album together. Then I thought why not add Sufi music and electronic music. Gradually, I understood that it is necessary to keep the beats of both in equal balance. It should not happen that one style dominates the other. And this was the biggest challenge for me. Then we made all the songs colored in Kovid Time.
