- Shruti Pathak
Her soulful Bollywood debut ‘Mar Jaawaan’ is still remembered for its heart-wrenching connect. Meet the super talented Shruti Pathak who tells Sumita Chakraborty how she entered Bollywood, her pet project Guzzler and more... How has your musical journey been so far? I have music in my life because of my father. He was an avid listener and a music lover. It wouldn’t have been the same for me if it wasn’t for him. I started learning Hindustani classical music at the age of 10 from my guruji Shri Divyang Thakore in Ahmedabad and then later from Shri Sunil Bargaonkar after moving to Mumbai. Music defines me and has made me the person I am today. I can proudly say that is the most beautiful part of my life. How did you come to Mumbai and adjust to the vibe of this super busy city? I hail from Ahmedabad, which absolutely has a different vibe, different culture... Initially when I moved alone to Mumbai there were struggles but along with difficulties, this city also comes in with a lot of learnings. Mumbai is home now... It welcomed and embraced me with so much love and experiences that changed my life. This city has carved me as a musician and a human.
