There is no end to learning when it comes to playing an instrument, but to reach a level to properly play the lead guitar in some of Lahore's underground bands, he let himself take 4 years of self-teaching and self-training. In his words, “the art of music, to me, is much more than a mere hobby or a profession. To me, it is a form that expands one's imagination and is necessary for every soul to have this beautiful piece of art around its existence to savor a better and a more meaningful life”. |
