  Speaker 1: Doing great?
• 33:32
  Speaker 29: Sammy, thanks for having me on the show.
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: Well, thanks for coming on, my man. Thank you so
• 33:36
  Speaker 1: much for spending time with us here on a Tuesday
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: morning listen. An incredible background that you bring here to
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: your voice, a performing arts background, an acting background on CBS,
• 33:51
  Speaker 1: and here you are with your brand new single. How
• 33:54
  Speaker 1: does one negotiate all of this into one identity?
• 33:58
  Speaker 29: Yeah? So I was born and raised here in the US,
• 34:01
  Speaker 29: and my mom made sure Hindi was always stoken at
• 34:04
  Speaker 29: home so they'd connect to my roots, and that naturally
• 34:08
  Speaker 29: shaped the way I approached music today. I ended up
• 34:11
  Speaker 29: studying at NYU Tish, which gave me formal artistic training,
• 34:15
  Speaker 29: and outside of music, I had the chance to act
• 34:17
  Speaker 29: in musicals and TV, and all those experiences really helped
• 34:20
  Speaker 29: shape me as a performer.
• 34:22
  Speaker 1: I bet, I bet those are all very tremendous backgrounds.
• 34:27
  Speaker 7: You know.
• 34:28
  Speaker 1: Talking about those backgrounds, you know now as you as
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: you set out to start releasing music out there a
• 34:34
  Speaker 1: whole different world and perhaps engaging parts of your background
• 34:39
  Speaker 1: that you may not have initially envisioned, you know, as
• 34:43
  Speaker 1: a performing artist, as an actor in front of television
• 34:48
  Speaker 1: on mainstream television, might I add? And then now who
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: you are releasing music, what are those other disciplines do
• 34:54
  Speaker 1: you borrow from when you release music? Yeah?
• 34:57
  Speaker 29: No, I think the musical theater ASTDIC really help me.
• 35:00
  Speaker 6: You know.
• 35:01
  Speaker 29: It was a little time ago. I did the d
• 35:02
  Speaker 29: D LJ Works up here in New York City, the
• 35:05
  Speaker 29: first one they did and with the Puchure Oprah and I.
• 35:08
  Speaker 29: That was such a great experience because that helps me
• 35:10
  Speaker 29: kind of were uh, you know, work around the fusion aspect.
• 35:13
  Speaker 29: That's where they were going for as well. They make
• 35:15
  Speaker 29: a lot of English and the infant job and everything.
• 35:17
  Speaker 29: And then after that I performed at La Hooya Playhouse
• 35:20
  Speaker 29: in California. There was a musical called Banging It Again
• 35:23
  Speaker 29: based in the South Asian culture, which was another great experience,
• 35:26
  Speaker 29: same thing fusion, So I think the musical theater side
• 35:29
  Speaker 29: of everything really kind of helped me find out what
• 35:32
  Speaker 29: I want to do with when it comes to my music.
• 35:34
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think I think safe to call you a
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: multi hyphen it. Let's just say that, right. You're you're
• 35:42
  Speaker 1: you're a man of many disciplines here, you know, but
• 35:46
  Speaker 1: as a New Yorker, you're a New York native, you know,
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: you you get you you have this very interesting background
• 35:52
  Speaker 1: that you bring to the diaspora. What of that background
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: do you often find yourself kind of evoking you will
• 36:00
  Speaker 1: as you as you go back and forth with India.
• 36:03
  Speaker 29: Yeah, No, I think being brought up here it allowed
• 36:05
  Speaker 29: me to get comfortable with the Western contemporary music. Since
• 36:10
  Speaker 29: I was I was like seven years old. My mom
• 36:12
  Speaker 29: right away put me into vocal classes, I you know,
• 36:15
  Speaker 29: and I really kind of learned what American classical music
• 36:19
  Speaker 29: is all about. And that kind of gave me that foundation.
• 36:22
  Speaker 29: And then I still remember I was, you know, I
• 36:24
  Speaker 29: grew up listening to R G, you know, and it
• 36:26
  Speaker 29: was just like it just really gave me that kind
• 36:29
  Speaker 29: of realization that I wanted to do something that kind
• 36:31
  Speaker 29: of bridges the Western side as well as the South
• 36:36
  Speaker 29: Asian side of our of music. You know, I wanted
• 36:38
  Speaker 29: to do something that can highlight the amazing culture that
• 36:42
  Speaker 29: we have and and you know the music that can.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: Do that, It certainly can. It's one of the few
• 36:47
  Speaker 1: things that can brother for sure. You know, let's talk
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: about this this marriage between music performing arts. You've been
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: in front of the camera, we've talked about that, and
• 36:57
  Speaker 1: then we've talked about your performing arts background here. But tally,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: let's talk about Banging It, which was a Bangoda live
• 37:04
  Speaker 1: music theater performance that you did. Tell us about that.
• 37:08
  Speaker 1: What was that like for you?
• 37:10
  Speaker 29: Oh, it was it was amazing. The team was really beautiful,
• 37:14
  Speaker 29: and you know, it was we had to learn bunk
• 37:17
  Speaker 29: for almost I think it was like we were there
• 37:19
  Speaker 29: for a couple of months and you know it's what
• 37:21
  Speaker 29: took weeks and weeks for me to have to learn
• 37:23
  Speaker 29: bunk and it really made me realize how vast our
• 37:26
  Speaker 29: culture is. And it was just a beautiful experience all
• 37:28
  Speaker 29: the way from the acting, singing to the dancing. It
• 37:31
  Speaker 29: was beautiful.
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's pretty interesting and I think it captures this
• 37:35
  Speaker 1: really interesting culture of ours that is, you know, we
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: love our dance, we love our dance teams We love
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: the culture around, the competitive edge around it. It's quite
• 37:45
  Speaker 1: common out here and I think that's really well captured there.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: You know, going forward, you you you put out this
• 37:52
  Speaker 1: single and it's not just any single, it's with you know,
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: India's one of India's biggest labels. It's it's with one
• 38:00
  Speaker 1: of India's biggest artists. You know, how do you do that,
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: mister Aurora? How do you arrive at a single in
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: such a big way and what I would consider one
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: of your first big outings out there?
• 38:11
  Speaker 29: Yeah, I know, you know, all the credit goes to
• 38:14
  Speaker 29: U T Series. You know, when T Series reached out,
• 38:16
  Speaker 29: they were just really drawn to the fusion style been
• 38:19
  Speaker 29: I'd been building and from there they wanted the first
• 38:22
  Speaker 29: release to be something special, and you know, they were
• 38:25
  Speaker 29: the ones who brought the idea of the collaboration orgy
• 38:28
  Speaker 29: thing to life. So you know, all the credit goes
• 38:30
  Speaker 29: to them.
• 38:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it's it's it's quite quite a performance, and we're
• 38:34
  Speaker 1: going to play it here for a second, in a
• 38:36
  Speaker 1: second here after a couple more questions here with you brother,
• 38:40
  Speaker 1: I'm here of course with Arian Aurora. You know you've
• 38:43
  Speaker 1: got you you you add these different layers to this song.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: You're you're dealing with a song that is a really
• 38:50
  Speaker 1: famous one. It's a song we've played here quite a
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: bit called Sudny by Adige saying, and now you're tasked
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: with reimagining it. And what you do is you bring
• 39:00
  Speaker 1: almost three different languages to it. You bring some Punjabi,
• 39:02
  Speaker 1: some Hindi, and then you also bring some English to it.
• 39:05
  Speaker 1: It's pretty difficult to manage all of those different sentiments
• 39:09
  Speaker 1: through one voice, but you do it so well. Tell
• 39:13
  Speaker 1: us about that challenge, and tell us about the decision
• 39:15
  Speaker 1: there to kind of go in different languages and arm
• 39:18
  Speaker 1: yourself with with this very dynamic approach.
• 39:22
  Speaker 29: Yeah, of course you meant to be. Surgery honestly feels
• 39:25
  Speaker 29: like the most authentic voice to who I am as
• 39:28
  Speaker 29: an artist right now because it naturally combines, you know,
• 39:31
  Speaker 29: both sides of me. It brings together Western contemporary influences
• 39:35
  Speaker 29: with South Asian musical emotion and melodies, which is really
• 39:39
  Speaker 29: the space I've always wanted to create them. And you know,
• 39:42
  Speaker 29: being able to do that with t series and urgy thing,
• 39:44
  Speaker 29: it's an honor.
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a remarkable achievement. It's really really cool, you know,
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: let's talk about the music side here as you get
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: ready to put out more stuff in the future. Tell
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: us what is it that we can expect here from you?
• 40:03
  Speaker 29: Yeah, No, there's more music coming, especially with t series.
• 40:06
  Speaker 29: And you know, I recently did a podcast with the
• 40:09
  Speaker 29: chef the cost Kanda in the City, and you know,
• 40:11
  Speaker 29: we talked about this. We talked about my debut with
• 40:14
  Speaker 29: the with the Men to Be Sojourny and then I
• 40:16
  Speaker 29: he we also talked about my upcoming release what will
• 40:18
  Speaker 29: come afterwards with these series and yeah, so I sang
• 40:21
  Speaker 29: this song for him, it's called Avari and it's not
• 40:24
  Speaker 29: released yet, but I just gave him a little, you know,
• 40:26
  Speaker 29: a little brief about it and yeah, and that's that
• 40:28
  Speaker 29: will be the next song that I'll be releasing. And yeah,
• 40:31
  Speaker 29: it was. It's just it's a really beautiful process.
• 40:34
  Speaker 1: You know. You you you're working on it, You've broken
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: out the different languages on the song, you go back
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: and record it. What was the process of putting this
• 40:41
  Speaker 1: song together? Like for you or Rian? Like, tell us
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: where where where did it all work out for you?
• 40:46
  Speaker 1: What was the moment when you when you were in
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: the studio, You're like, all right, this is going to
• 40:49
  Speaker 1: be great.
• 40:51
  Speaker 29: Yeah, I know, great questions, Sammy. You know, you know
• 40:53
  Speaker 29: what the main goal with Meant to Be Sojny was
• 40:56
  Speaker 29: emotional depth, you know, whether it's so or saying what
• 41:00
  Speaker 29: fans out is how they bring a real meaning to
• 41:03
  Speaker 29: every word they sing. And that same intention was very
• 41:07
  Speaker 29: important to me with this track, you know, whether I

  Speaker 1: your film, call up Amitrivedi. He'll imagine it for you.
• 56:11
  Speaker 1: Shout out to AMITRAVEDI, A big shout out to Arian
• 56:15
  Speaker 1: Aurora today, thirty years in this business, and I'll tell
• 56:18
  Speaker 1: you something I almost never say on this show. Today's
• 56:22
  Speaker 1: conversation was a trajectory call. Not a review of work
• 56:25
  Speaker 1: that's already done, not an interview with somebody whose resume
• 56:29
  Speaker 1: I can summarize for you.
• 56:30
  Speaker 27: No.
• 56:31
  Speaker 1: A trajectory call the kind of conversation you have with
• 56:35
  Speaker 1: an artist when you can already see where they're going.
• 56:38
  Speaker 1: And the only question is how fast Arian Aurora sat
• 56:42
  Speaker 1: with me today, Multi hyphen it Tish trained young enough
• 56:46
  Speaker 1: that most outlets wouldn't know what to put him on yet.
• 56:49
  Speaker 1: And that's exactly why I wanted to put him in
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: this chair today, because what I've learned in my thirty
• 56:55
  Speaker 1: years of doing this is that artists who matter most
• 56:58
  Speaker 1: aren't the ones with the biggest current credit. They're the
• 57:01
  Speaker 1: ones whose trajectory tells you where they're going next. Arian
• 57:05
  Speaker 1: understands something at his age that most performers fight against
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: for decades. Being formless isn't a problem to solve. It's
• 57:14
  Speaker 1: the asset. Tis taught him what the rules are, He's
• 57:17
  Speaker 1: earned the right to break them. The stage is his canvas,
• 57:21
  Speaker 1: the audience is his sanctuary, and the art itself refuses
• 57:25
  Speaker 1: to settle into one form because Arian refuses to. The
• 57:30
  Speaker 1: bookends he's already defined at his age are impressive. But
• 57:33
  Speaker 1: I'll tell you what I told him in this room,
• 57:36
  Speaker 1: That's not the part I'm watching. I'm watching the trajectory
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: because this can go anywhere Arion wants it to go,
• 57:43
  Speaker 1: and the rest of us are going to have to
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: run to catch up. Go find his work tonight, follow him.
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: Tell somebody you heard him here first. See you tomorrow, folks.
• 57:54
