WANJARA as a Band performed for over SEVEN YRS before splitting up & going separate ways! DOSTi remained with Jasi & myself ever after.until suddenly Tragedy Struck & my Best friend Jasi passed away.
Since Jasi's sudden departure from the worlds stage, i could not Sing& Stand alone without my Right arm & best friend. THE DREAM OF WANJARA was put aside for nearly 10 yrs , until by GuruKirpa i met up again with Raju (Premi) in 2004. Raju was working on New projects & needed some Songs - So the Journey of Wanjara starts again.
