Basically a resident of Punjab and Mumbai, Rajveer’s connection with the Assamese culture started years ago. Born and brought up in Guwahati when his parents shifted base to the city’s Kala Pahar locality for business purposes, Rajveer had shown a strong inclination towards music since very young. He listened to music that was indigenous to Assamese and Punjabi culture.
His musical journey has been quite hectic. He went on to work on a number of albums and music videos with various leading singers, besides doing concerts and live events. Over the years, Rajveer has contributed to both Punjabi and Assamese music. Rajveer has made a conscious attempt to take Bihu and other traditional songs to the international stage, demonstrating his respect and devotion to his homeland. Rajveer has sung and directed music with popular Bollywood singers like Guru Randhawa, Neha Kakkar, among others, and is also associated with the event management of Bollywood superstars Salman Khan and Shahrukh Khan.
