The notes of tradition
The intellectuals, art critics or the search engine Google will probably throw up different ways to look at art and even how one should appreciate it. The Gundecha Brothers, Umakant and Ramakant (vocalist) and Akhilesh Gundecha (pakhawaj player) however, have a basic take on classical art. The Gundecha Brothers, in Chandigarh to perform at a function organised by the Spic Macay, echo their take, “Many people don’t understand classical music, but art is about feeling and not understanding.

Stars in his eyes
This baby-face versatile boy has huge goals set for himself. And his dream is to be on the screen, slowly spread his arms and give that killer smile even as his famous dad, Udit Narayan, sings for him! Well, presently Aditya Narayan is preparing for what might come handy 20 years later. “I started singing very early. And since then I have been learning and working together,” says Aditya, who is assisting Sanjay Leela Bhansali in Ram Leela.
In Chandigarh on Thursday as part of the ongoing Tourism Week celebrations, Aditya comes across as a much more mature person than his age reveals.

Of depth & meaning
Even as one asks Ayazz Ul Haroon to break into a song, it is certain it would be music to the ear! After a sip of water and tuning the strings of his guitar, he gives us a small background about the song. “This was written five years back and has a South-Indian melody,” he says. Soon the entire S Lounge is engulfed in his song. The silence of the audience gives enough room to Piya, his favourite composition.

Heroine of the day!
When the first preview of Heroine happened, I was in Delhi, praying in a Gurudwara—Waheguru meher karin...and he did! The calls, smses, tweets never stopped! They all loved my role. I couldn't believe it was so loved not only by critics, but audiences too. It's a very warm feeling inside when the janta supports you. There couldn't be a stronger support system.
