Such a lovely response from all of you on my first music album "Nau Din Mata Ke" release. Its successfully selling on more than 15 sites all over the world. After releasing it, I have visited more than hundred temples in north India till now in the promotion of my album. You guys might think what kind of promotion this was. So on that I would share my thoughts in last paragraph of this post.

Lets talk about the above sketch. This was my last work of last year 2010. As you could figure out, this sketch is of our 11th president of India 'Bharat Ratna' Mr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. He is, a real not a reel, hero of our nation. I tried to portray his dream on sheet. He is in his depth of his vision in this portrait. I wanted to gift his sketch to him but been pretty busy with my album production I could not get chance to present him.

As every one know about his dream, he wants to see India a developed nation by 2020. This dream might be flowing in most of the Indians mind but very few has that zeal and passion to accomplish this. We are pretty much sure, he could make this happen. I would like to appeal each and every Indian to convey best wishes and full support to him to achieve this mammoth. To know more about him and his current affairs, please visit his official website - http://www.abdulkalam.com/

Now time to share my thoughts on my album promotion. The idea was, I wanted those devotees to listen my album first, who could not buy the album. Either they are incapable of paying the amount or lacking internet exposure. All, rich or poor, could listen my songs in temples wherever I offered my CD. I would definitely have got lots of blessings from all the temples. That I could realize later on. Now I am more energetic, motivated, calm and cool after this spiritual tour ! Some places I was offered a 'naariyal', somewhere I was garlanded by priest & from some other temples full bags of 'prasaad'. Tour went really well and been very informative and soul satisfactory. I got chance to visit even those places which have their significance in ancient India. Facts, which are written in puraans and shashtras, are found in those places.

I have kicked off my next project. I will share you all once something is finalized. Your comments are most welcome on his sketch and on my first music album release.

Best Regards to All My Loved Ones!
