After a year of studying, in 1997 he became a graded junior artist of All India Radio and started performing/recording in a program called Calling All Children. He continued learning western classical music in Piano till he got introduced to the world of Jazz and its musical concepts and theory.

He joined Blue Mist, a pop band from the city. He soon started working as a sessions musician, dabbling in various different styles like Latin, funk, pop and jazz. His major breakthrough happened when he got an offer to perform with legendary Bebop musician Mr. Carlton Kitto. He performed with the Carlton Kitto Jazz Ensemble for several years until the guitarists' unfortunate demise.
