I consider myself extremely fortunate to be associated with Somaiya Vidyavihar University, where I encountered the pioneering BPA and MPA Flute degree programs in Mumbai. The University offers numerous opportunities for performances across the expansive campus. I had the privilege of performing at the Anant Ambani wedding.
