It was so good, Atharva, I can feel the effort and practice behind the making of this wonderful classic. A good singer takes on any challenges, and Atharva, the same is reflected in you. The way you performed Johnny- Johnny with an Indian musical touch is commendable. Keep it up!

Speaking about this unique choice of song, Atharva Mishra said, “I come from Kabir Math. And the specialty of Kabir Math is that we are taught rhymes and poems in this manner only. This was all possible because of the education that I have received from my teachers in Banaras; I owe it all to them”.

Captain Salman Ali also added, saying, ‘Hats off to your gurus; mere Salaam unko. The innovative approach to poetically presenting your singing is truly amazing, and when I saw you onstage, I felt that the tune and rhythm would be the same as Johnny Johnny, but your quirky version was so good. You created such a great atmosphere; this was truly amazing.”
