Guitar Whispers to Stage Roars - Aakash's Musical Journey

Aakash's Musical Journey

Aakash Jain, a budding musician and a dedicated student of Nishaad Music Classes, shares the enchanting chapters of his musical journey. From the first delicate notes of a guitar that sparked his passion to the triumphant moment on stage as a singer, this is a tale of perseverance, joy, and little milestones that build a musician.

Aakash Jain, always loved singing, from his early age. His mother was well aware of his interests. One day when his mother first heard the soul-stirring melodies of a guitar, at a neighbor's home near his grandmother's place, she got really excited and encouraged him to learn the guitar, "You should learn the guitar.", she said.

Growing up in Shujalpur, a small town where musical facilities were scarce, Aakash's childhood dream of exploring music faced challenges, especially given the family's circumstances.

Soon Aakash's father arranged for him to pursue engineering in Ujjain, with the support of loans. The dream of learning the guitar persisted.

During his college days, Aakash discovered a guitar class and eagerly joined. Two months into the classes, his mother, as a heartwarming birthday surprise on January 24, 2014, gifted him his very own guitar from her savings.

Life took a turn with final exams and job commitments, temporarily halting his guitar lessons. Despite sporadic self-learning through YouTube, his musical journey faced interruptions. It wasn't until 2015, after securing a job, that the guitar found its way back into its case, untouched.

Fate smiled upon Aakash when he moved to Bhopal for work, and the universe led him to Nishaad Music Classes. The desire to learn music reignited, and he enrolled in guitar classes. 

Here, he also began learning vocals (singing) under the guidance of Gaurav Sir. Aakash discovered newfound confidence within himself after two  months of practice.

In the midst of it all, an invitation arrived from a nearby Jain temple to perform bhajans, extended to Nishaad Music Classes. Gaurav Sir, the mentor, approached Aakash, and with unwavering support, they prepared for the performance in just one day.

The moment arrived at the temple, and Aakash's first performance became the highlight of his life. Coincidentally, this musical milestone unfolded again on his birthday, January 24, 2024. His mother, making a special trip from Shujalpur solely to witness his performance, added to the joy. The recognition and encouragement received from the temple left Aakash and his entire family overjoyed.

Aakash Jain sees this performance as the best gift he has ever received, a testament to the power of music and the guidance of a supportive mentor.

In his own words,

"Mandir me jab pehli baar perform kiya wo meri life ka best day tha jo ki mujhe birthday ke din (24/01/2024) Gaurav sir ki wajah se mila. Is ko mai ab tak ka best gift manta hu. Meri mataji Shujalpur se sirf mera performance dekhne ke liye aayi. Mandir ki taraf se jo sammaan aur protsahan mila, vo dekh kar mai aur mera poora parivaar bahut khush hua." ("Performing for the first time in the temple was the best day of my life, which I received as a gift on my birthday (24/01/2024) because of Gaurav Sir. I consider it the best gift until now. My mother came from Shujalpur just to see my performance. Seeing the honor and encouragement from the temple, my entire family was very happy.")

Aakash Jain's musical journey continues, filled with notes of joy, perseverance, and the harmonious guidance of Nishaad Music Classes.

Stay musical, Aakash!
