“The album (RHYDHUN)   was a true benchmark in the annals of Indian Music Industry. The album achieved something that’s not easily done, introducing a new genre of music to the people and having them accept it without hesitation….The Madness Of  A Maverick - He had the courage and the belief in himself to look beyond tradition and carve a unique niche for himself. With the release of Rhydhun, percussionist Taufiq Qureshi has generated mass interest in a genre like World Music, (Best Non Film Album Award Contender)”

Individuality”
