Sahil Sharma, aka DJ Zaeden

At the Vh1 Supersonic festival that concluded earlier this year, Sahil Sharma, aka DJ Zaeden, serenaded the crowd in the midst of his set, marking his live singing debut. With a gamut of international gigs to his credit, one would assume he'd uphold world-renowned bigwigs as inspiration behind his decision to test his vocal chords, but the youngster has only one man to credit. "It has to be my dad. He's a Kishore Kumar cover artiste. He has released an album too. When he heard me hum the track, he loved it, and told me to record it," Zaeden tells mid-day of his debut single, Like Me Better.
