How did you become a singer?
First of All, I want to Thank God for giving me a Good Voice Quality that made me a Singer as you cannot sing until & unless you have a Good God Gifted Voice. Since my childhood Music is my passion and I used to participate in each & every singing competition held on State & National level.
I won a singing competition with maximum public voting for a Radio FM when I was in 11th Class which filled me with Confidence.
Gradually with the Time I started composing & writing songs for myself. I remember when I composed my first Jingle for an advertisement for which I got 10,000 in 2014. It motivated me to take music as a Profession.
Besides this, I was also a part of Anna Hazare's Andolan India Against Corruption and gave my contribution with my Voice by Singing Patriotic Songs in front of Lakhs of People in Ram Leela Maidan and Jantar Mantar in New Delhi in the presence of Kiran Bedi and Arvind Kejriwal during my college days at Delhi University.
All these Incidents Turned my Heart and Mind towards Music and Urged me to become a Singer by profession.
Do you always wanted to be a singer?
Yes I always wanted to be a Singer but to earn my living I actually started my career by working in various event management companies after completing my Event management post graduate diploma from NIEM College Mumbai. Later on took a Job in Accounts department in one of the Casinosin Goa.
But I Somehow managed to do small live music gigs in restaurants with my job because I cannot live a single day without singing.
As queries started flowing in and people loved my performance and Voice, I decided to leave my job and choose Music as a Full Time Career.

Also many famous top event and artist management companies know me as Kashish& The Bollywood Band.
