Achievements
Choo Lo their first original was an instant hit and is the recipient of a National Award conferred by Nagesh Kukunoor.
Nagesh Kukunoor on Choo Lo "A good tune either grabs me or it doesn't - it's a very instinctual thing. Later you can analyze it and break it down. The tune of this song grabbed me on the first pass. I like Choo lo because it reminds me of 70's and 80's rock ballads (REO Speedwagon, Boston etc) combined with a nice dose of Indianness."
