I am a passionate drummer and music producer, and recently achieved a Grade 8 Distinction (94%) from Rockschool (RSL Awards). I have also won several awards in interschool competitions for my performances and original compositions.

Music Factory began in 2017 as a student-led initiative inspired by a shared love for music and guided by our mentor, Aartee Aunty. From the very beginning, the focus was on using music not just as a form of expression, but as a means to create impact. Shortly after its inception, we began offering music therapy at a children’s cancer hospital in Noida. That experience became a turning point for me—both as a drummer and as a person.

At the hospital, I witnessed the incredible resilience of children battling serious illnesses and undergoing painful chemotherapy. Despite their suffering, they radiated strength, hope, and joy in the smallest of moments. Their courage taught me to truly appreciate life and ignited a deeper purpose in me—to use my music to make a meaningful difference.

Since then, I have been actively involved in leading and supporting various social initiatives, including those focused on youth, women, underprivileged children, disadvantaged communities, and environmental causes. One of our most powerful collaborations has been with Sheroes, a community of acid attack survivors who embody extraordinary resilience. Despite facing a judgmental world, they refuse to be defined by their scars.

At Music Factory, we support Sheroes in multiple ways—helping them set up cafes, bring in patrons, learn to play music, improve their digital literacy, and develop new skills. Together, we strive to create a more inclusive and accepting world.

My journey with Music Factory has shaped who I am today. What began as a passion for music has grown into a mission rooted in empathy, community, and purpose. Performing for social causes has opened my eyes to the impact we can create through our art. These experiences have taught me about compassion, human resilience, and the joy of giving back.

Through this journey, I’ve grown not just as a musician, but as a human being—learning to value human connection, find meaning in small moments, and dedicate myself to using my skills for the greater good.
