All About Music And Fashion:
Talking about his musical journey, Anirudh shared, "I always loved to sing, but never thought of becoming a musician. It came very late in my life and interestingly, it was during lockdown that I recognized my talent"
Anirudh uploads his songs on his YouTube channel 'Anirudh Sharma Music' and interestingly, all the songs have been written, composed and sung by himself. Some of the popular songs uploaded by him are 'You Are Mine' (2021), 'Kaise Kahu' (2021), 'Closer' (2022) and many more. He said, "My writings are always my feelings and my emotions are the greatest motivation."
"My journey would not have been possible without my self-confidence and discipline. That is what I feel is the pioneer of the entire transformation in my life.", he further added.
Apart from being a musician, Anirudh is also a model and endorses a number of fashion brands including 'Rare Rabbit' on his social media account and has also walked runways for a few fashion shows.
"Fashion is like a driving force to my content creation and yes, I started creating content because I loved fashion and wanted to experiment with myself a bit more", said Anirudh.
Canada Days:
Anirudh was born in Una, Himachal Pradesh where he completed his schooling from Mount Carmel School. Later, he went to Canada to study marketing. Talking about his days in the foreign land, Anirudh said, "Canada made me learn a lot of things like self-discipline, self-dependency, and also made me independent. It taught me everything which I think helps me with my journey in Mumbai."
Interestingly, he met his girlfriend Mrunal Panchal through social media when he was in Canada, while the latter was in India. After three months of chatting online, they met each other for the first time after three months and later, Anirudh decided to stay in India. The two have collaborated for a couple of reels and Mrunal has also featured in some of the music videos made by Anirudh.
Sharing their story, Anirudh said, "I met Mrunal Panchal in 2017, and we started talking since then, and have been continuing our endless talks till today. Working together doesn't feel like anything new because the chemistry, coordination and understanding that we have between each other is so concrete now that it doesn't matter. Whether it is in a music video or song, we are just ourselves."
