Deepak inherited the flair of creativity from his father who used to write shayaris and poems. His father noticed that he is interested in music. He didn’t tell him to do a job. He suggested him to join a music school to polish his talent. He went to Richard Music Academy to learn music including Hindustani classical.

Deepak used to go to Kavi Sammelan and such public events with his father. Shayaris and poems always mesmerized him.

In 2018, his song “Sufi Salaam” caught the attention of a few big guns of Bollywood. The brilliant Sufi romantic song was sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and the buzz is out now that he has been signed for a few big B-town projects.
