In later years, he underwent unimaginable hardships to emerge as one of the foremost classical vocalists of all times. Even today he calls himself a shagird, for his quest still continues. An impulsive, impetuous man, a musician with a unique style, a skilled driver and car mechanic, an avid sports-lover, footballer, swimmer and slow-cyclist, he stands out as a man who has truly lived life to the hilt. Yet his passionate nature is tempered by an all-consuming dedication to his muse. And it is this that has enabled him to successfully challenge overwhelming odds time and again.
