‘Glassy’ has been produced by Teg Sandhu of Tegson Group of Industries, under the music direction of B2 from the U.K. The album boasts mostly dance tracks infused with elements of hip hop, bhangra and sufi music.

It was an “inevitable shift” for Sawhney from chemical engineering to pop music. A trained classical musician, he always attempts to incorporate the classical roots in his music. But has the western influence tainted this form of music? Sawhney responds, “It is only through such innovations that we are keeping classical Punjabi music alive.” Talking about the downside of fame, he says, “The most difficult part is the struggle and lack of security. It is very important for a singer to have his own hit album or it’s all over. All the winners of talent hunts on television acquire instant fame but are not given any importance afterwards. He has also acted in a Punjabi film, which would release soon. Sawhney has performed in more than 1000 stage shows in India and abroad.
