Groomin' Talents - Saugato

""I grew up in a musician-filled family. But, as for me, I couldn't sing well nor could I play an instrument. I had a soft corner for music and wanted to do something along that line. I knew that even if I could not create music, I can surely curate it.

In college, for the want of pocket money, I used my connections and began organizing concerts. After repeated endeavors as such, I lost my interest in B.Tech(not that I had any in the beginning). My contacts and my shows increased. During this time, I also made sure to support and bring up as many new talents as possible. . 

With a job in hand, I went to Bangalore. There, I did pub shows. Gradually, after much research and introspection, I decided to quit my job and pursue Music Supervision in Mumbai. I gained a lot of insights from Azeem Dayani and Ankur Tewari(renowned music supervisors of Bollywood). 

Then, Covid happened. I had to come back home and here, I met a friend, Siddharth. Both of us started the music supervision trend here. We groomed a lot of new talents and made a number of songs.  

Being an RJ is also a part of my life. I have interviewed a lot of celebrities. Radio marked the start of my entire journey. I have been opportunistic to meet my favourites like Shaan, A.R. Rahman and others.

Odisha has a lot of potential artists. Being the first music supervisor of Odisha, I plan to provide a platform for all our budding Odia singers and cast them alongside big names of the music industry. Good things are in the pipeline!" - Saugato.
