A collection of anecdotes by individuals, just like us, doing what they love
"My journey as a musician began at a very young age and ever since I was in the 8th grade, I knew I'd become a singer. Little did I know, however, that I would end up dabbling in almost every aspect of music ranging from vocals to composition and finally music production.
It was never easy. It still is not. I moved to Bombay because I wanted something more as a musician and because I had always loved this city. When I did move, almost two and a half years ago, I had to struggle not even to meet ends but to just get one job in a month. I persisted and went on and on trying to find work. It finally started coming in when I put double the effort and let whatever little ego I had, out the window.

"Baking was not a part of my agenda and I knew nothing about it till 3 years back. I unknowingly took it up during a rough/lonely phase in my life and it just stuck. The feeling of spreading joy through good food, that you make, is unparalleled to anything I’ve experienced in my life. From once a week it slowly became an almost daily thing for me. I spent more and more hours learning, reading and practicing. I felt like a child again. Now comes the important question – make your passion your job?
"By the time I was 14 I had lived in 7 different cities. My family was always moving and my sibling and I had very little time to form deep friendships. Therefore my escape was reading. Till the end of my English bachelors I desired to write. I joined Jamia Mass communication with an aspiration that it will give me an opportunity to write and very little information about what the school actually taught. We started learning photography. This led to our first project, telling a 3 min story through still images. By doing it I realized I extremely enjoy telling stories. By continuously pursuing the visual medium I discovered I was a much better visual storyteller.
