Meet Ayaan Sajad from Kashmir, who is just 11 years old and is already ruling the Internet for his melodious voice captured in his latest track ‘Bedard Dadi Chane.’
The 11-year-old singer became an Internet sensation after his Kashmiri song went viral on social media, gaining him millions of views on the song and the track is still trending in the valley. Ayaan Sajad hails from the Anantnag district of south Kashmir and wants to represent Kashmir and inspire many upcoming younger generations to follow their heart and passion, all over the world. “I started my journey with small functions, and marriages and also participated in many singing competitions to get exposure. I began my journey with a family function where I was asked to sing a Kashmiri song. And then during one such event, I met this local radio jockey RJ Umer who gave me a chance to perform on stage and showcase my talent. And that’s precisely where it all started,” said Ayaan.
Ayaan added, “Umer Sir helped me a lot and provided me a platform where people came to know about my talent.” “My family supported me from day one. My papa told me to pursue a career in singing but I want to balance academics and singing” Ayaan said in an interaction.
RJ Umer directed ‘Bedard Dadi Chane’, sung by Ayaan Sajad in the Kashmiri language with a Sufi theme and pop-rap, adding a unique twist to the melody.
