Ankur, who lost his complete vision at the tender age of 2, never looked back ever since his interest in music was spotted which was at a very early age and since then he began training rigorously under the able mentorship of various gurus.
Ankur is a man with multiple facets. Along with music being his food for the soul, he has excelled in other fields as well simultaneously. Apart from being an excellent singer, he is also a bank officer with one of the leading public sector banks of the country.

Ankur got an opportunity to meet Javed during one of his visits to Delhi in the year 2017 where Javed heard him for the first time. Javed promised to write for Ankur after being thoroughly impressed by his singing skills.
