A young musician from Pune, India, Gandhaar started intensive training in Indian classical music with his father, at the age of 4. With this strong base of a codified form of music, Gandhaar decided to apply the melodic depth of Indian classical music to a modern, urban setting.
He started creating music that was difficult to define at the time. A strong Indian melodic identity, combined with the finesse of electronic music production. This soon became his signature sound, and he started getting invited to create music for applications that needed this modern and global take on Indian music.
From BGM and songs for TV and film, to advertising jingles and corporate presentations, Gandhaar has been creating music for a wide range of applications for a decade and a half. He also composes and produces independently released music under his own name, while producing music for indie song writers from around the world. Notably, he recorded and was a co-composer on Inner World, a music album by The Dalai Lama, in 2020.
After working in the Indian music industry for over a decade, Gandhaar moved to Toronto, Canada, in search for a wider and more diverse audience for his global sound. He has since been a regular performer at prominent Toronto live music spaces like The Aga Khan Museum, Small World Music, Drom Taberna, and many more.
