Today everyone hums the songs of Punjabi singer Guru Randhawa, but you will be surprised when you know about Guru’s struggle. Guru sang in village weddings at the age of just 9 for pocket money. Recently the Guru himself revealed this. When Guru used to sing in a wedding, people liked his song and sometimes gave 10 rupees and sometimes 20 rupees.

Today, Guru has made his place with his hard work and is ruling the hearts of crores of fans. Currently, he is making his acting debut in Bollywood with his film ‘Kuch Khatta Ho Jaaye’.
Even for singer Kailash Khair, who made a name for himself with Shiv Bhajan and Sufi singing, the path to this point was not at all easy. He left his home at the age of just 14 to make music his world. After this, there was shortage of money for Kailash’s living. Then he roamed from place to place in search of work. During this time, he also got a chance to learn music. He not only learned it himself, but also gradually taught it to others. At that time Kailash could earn only Rs 150-200. With this money he used to meet the expenses of his house and studies also.

Even for well-known singer and music composer AR Rahman, childhood was not so relaxing. He lost his father at an early age and the burden of household responsibilities also fell on him. In such a situation, he was forced to leave his studies and start working to take up the responsibilities of the house. He started learning piano at the age of four and would occasionally go to his father’s studio to play the piano. This was what came in handy for them later on. He adopted it as a profession and later earned his livelihood from it. Today he has received many honors and has also received an Oscar Award for the songs of his film ‘Slumdog Millionaire’.
