Ehsaan Noorani is a part of the hugely successful trio Shankar, Ehsaan, Loy.

He took some time for this rapid fire, ahead of their performance at Adlabs Imagica on December 31.
What’s the one song you have on loop these days Coldplay’s Sky full of Stars.
Five songs in the soundtrack of your life Us and Them by Pink Floyd, Tutu by Miles Davis, Tears For Fears by Woman in Chains , SEL’s Kal Ho Na Ho and Here Comes The Sun by The Beatles. The song you love to listen when you’re happy and upbeat Jump by Van Helen And when you’re really low Wish You Were Here by Pink Floyd A song you would love as a teenager but are embarrassed by it now Daddy Cool by Boney M, but am not embarrassed at all. How would you describe your taste in music Eclectic What’s your favourite time of the day to listen to music In the morning when I drive to work and in the evening when I drive back. If you could have one band/ musician perform a private concert for you, who would it be A combination of Peter Gabriel and Sting And the one live act you would love to see at least once in your life I have seen Roger Waters, and I have seen David Gilmour but I would have loved to see the original Pink Floyd.
