Core voices and featured guests of Bandish Beatz.
Sanjai Chetan
Lead Vocalist · Singer · Songwriter · Composer · Vocal Coach · DJ
Sanjai Chetan is a Hindi singer-songwriter, poet, and studio producer based in Raleigh. An engineer by training (IIT), he later built a career in technology leadership — and that quiet discipline shows up in how he writes, produces, and reads a room, whether singing or guiding a Bollywood DJ set. His music leans into emotion, storytelling, love, hope, and introspection. He has collaborated with Bollywood producer Varun Grover, published a Hindi poetry collection in 2019, and is the founder of Eastvibe Studios in RTP — a creative space that has supported more than 1,200 projects and Grammy-winning artists — and of VocalMastery.art, a vocal coaching platform for aspiring and advancing singers. Live, listeners often call him the “Voice of Rafi” or “Voice of Kishore” — a nod to phrasing and color.
Padma Prathik
Lead Vocalist · Singer | Classical Singing Trainer
Padma Prathik is an accomplished vocalist with a Master’s degree in Indian classical vocal music and is a respected classical vocal instructor in the RTP area. Her performances reflect a deep foundation in technique, expression, and musical tradition, shaped by experience as an artist with All India Radio Vijayawada, appearances on prestigious stages across India and the United States, film recordings, and collaborations with Indian music directors. Fluent in Hindi, Telugu, and Tamil, Padma brings warmth, poise, and emotional depth to every song. Whether interpreting timeless Bollywood melodies or devotional bhajans, she creates an elegant, intimate musical experience. Audiences often appreciate the gentle, expressive quality of her voice, which evokes the grace and sensitivity associated with Lata Mangeshkar ji’s singing.
