I've always been a singer-songwriter - it started off with me and the guitar, just writing songs, they were very simple.

Chintu, Chimpoo, and I interacted with each other every day. Chimpoo lived with me and Chintu either came to the office on the days that he wasn't shooting or spoke to me on the phone.
