After completing his schooling from Srinagar, and Bachelors from MCRP University in Bhopal in 2008, the singer went to Pune to get his masters degree in Computer Applications there.

“I was inclined towards music from my childhood but due to family pressure could not pursue academics in the concerned subject. Although there was good support in the family, still they used to tell me that music has no scope in the valley,” recalled the singer.
Singh says recording a Kashmiri song is his dream project which he wants to complete by the end of December this year.
“I hope that the people of Kashmir will give their love to the song,” he said.
He said that he has earlier sung Kashmiri songs during his university days for which he got appreciation from all of the faculty and family members.
