Akhil Sachdeva: I don’t like sleeping, always kicked up for making music

Mumbai, Aug 24 (IANS) Music composer Akhil Sachdeva, who has composed the song ‘Piya Ghar Aaya – Homecoming’ from the recently released Emraan Hashmi-starrer ‘Awarapan 2’, has shared that he doesn’t like to sleep, and looks forward to working the next day after waking up.

The composer spoke with IANS after the film’s release in the BKC area of Mumbai, and shared that he has a laid back attitude to process his life.

He told IANS, “I breathe later, and think about music first, and I’m telling the truth. I breathe later. I don’t like sleeping at night. I enjoy waking up in the morning. I’m always thinking about what I will practice tomorrow and what will I create tomorrow? If there is no music in life, there are no meaning to life for me. And it’s written in the Gita that if you know the sargam, you don’t even need to say Shri Ram. Shriram is present in Sa. Music wins the world. Music is a different world”.

“The universe is different. And I ask for the same thing in every birth. I want the same mother that I had in this birth. Same face, same body, she should be as fat as she was, she should be as beautiful as her but she shouldn’t leave me so soon. And I want to be a musician just like that. Even if it takes me a long time to reach my goal. I want to be a musician just like that. I want to be a musician with a pure heart. So it’s very clear to me. I just want to do music and nothing else. And I want to do music to the fullest”, he added.

Meanwhile, ‘Awarapan 2’ is a sequel to ‘Awarapan’, and sees Emraan Hashmi reprising his role of Shivam Pandit. While ‘Awarapan’ was dubbed a flop upon its release, the film gained a significant loyal following in later years, eventually attaining the cult-status owing to its music, and Emraan Hashmi’s performance. ‘Awarapan 2’ is currently playing in cinemas.
