Which has been your most packed show till date? Tell
us more about it.
We have had shows that have 40 thousand people witnessing
the event. One of our first shows down at Palakkad had to get
police help in controlling the crowd. Another show with a
packed crowd of all nationalities was the Dubai Global village
world stage. NH 7 outings were no different where we played
on the stage where Steven Wilson performed the next day.
On what basis do you write the lyrics of the songs?
What are you mostly inspired by?
Our lyrics mostly comply with the mood and music we want to
create. As mentioned earlier we try and bring in some element
of revolution, a tribute or a story in our songs. Our regional
(Malayalam) lyrics are penned by Dhanya Suresh who also
happens to be GOVIND's sister. Our Hindi lyrics are by Dr
Gajanan Mitke and Piyush Kapoor (Sultan).Lyrics of Fish
rock was inspired by the front man's love for fish. Sultan was
against the atrocities of Mughal Empire. So each song has an
idea and the lyrics conform to it.
