Those singers who are determined to make it big with their singing skills and potential cannot be tamed from achieving inevitable success. There are very few musicians who make a name for themselves among the top musicians in the Indian Punjabi music industry with their debut music.

At the end of the day, I am only here to entertain my audience with my music notes and passionate compositions until my last breath. Rab Rakha!â€
