Raghav Sachar

Raghav Sachar is definitely amongst the most multi-talented people we have in the Indian music industry. Not only can he sing, compose music, and write lyrics, but he also knows how to play a whopping 33 instruments – and counting! He put all of these talents into the recently-released Gulabi Aankhen, which is his rendition of the RD Burman classic. Everything you see in the video has been done live by Raghav: all the “voices” are his, he’s played all the instruments, and he’s directed and edited the video himself. Phew!

Needless to say, I’m blown away by how talented he is. What a lovely rendition; I’m going to keep hitting replay on this one for sure!

Psst did you see Pritam‘s IIFA Rocks performance? It’s hands-down one of my favourite live performances, and Raghav in particular kills it on the sax during Badtameez Dil. Watch from 12:24 onwards to see what I mean:

What do you think of Gulabi Aankhen?
