burudu
Nakul and Sahil have been making music as Burudu for the last decade. Their journey started as independent artists trying to craft a new sound and performing live. Along the journey, they built themselves as composers for film, documentaries, advertisements, fashion films, and web shows.
​
Burudu can be genre-agnostic and play to a brief interchangeably, which makes the possibilities endless. Having lived in London, Singapore, Mumbai, Delhi, Mauritius and currently in New York City, Burudu's accumulated experiences contribute to their melting pot of musical expression.
​​​
They continue to embark on their mission to “collaborate and bring out the best and most unique of both their worlds”. The duo hopes to continue to push their boundaries and bring Burudu to a convergence of cultural experiences through their music.
"Hear Electronica Duo Burudu Conjure a Modern-Day Qawwali. Melding qawwali with Burudu’s chasmic electronica sound, Chattopadhyay sings in Persian and Brij Bhasha, which was an early catalyst for the duo.”
Anurag Tagat, RollingStone
"There is a certain melody of colours struck by the play of lights and shadows which is enhanced through the indie-pop song by Burudu'"
Zahabiya Ali,
"Burudu make music that is eclectic, unintrusive, emotional and definitely 'without genre'"

"Burudu’s full-length album Ditties is a collection of 12 mesmerising tracks—Nakul Sharma and Sahil Bhatia have managed to create a dynamic experience by throwing in all sorts of artists in the making of this album."
Pankhuri Shukla,
"One look at Nakul Sharma and Sahil Bhatia will tell you that they’re just regular, unassuming guys. Their music, however, is anything but."
Tina Dastur,
"Without a doubt, Burudu has quietly dropped a bombshell.
The layered, anthemic instrumentals twist and turn throughout the 12-track LP leaving listeners by the end of it, drained through an emotive rollercoaster."
