Leisure

I like travelling, music and reading books on any subject. A large part of my leisure time is spent, listening to, playing and composing music. I play the Indian classical instrument Sitar. Recently, I wrote and composed a full length musical called SOBUJ PRAN (Green Life) which was performed to a packed audience in Singapore. You can listen to some of my compositions by clicking here.
