Work by day, DJ by Night – The Dual lives of the DJs

DJ’s have always had this cool charisma that makes them stand out. But did you know these DJ’s have another life where they are playing complete opposite roles to a DJ.

Here’s are a few Indian DJ’s who lead a dual professional life:

Karan Bhojwani:

Karan Bhojwani is a long-time DJ and founder of Third Eye Records but he also ‘daylights’ as a full-time businessman, running a third generation family business which is essentially a Plastics Manufacturing Company.It is surprising to find out that he’s actually the Vice President of Operations for his business by day. Especially considering he’s always organising tours and gigs for international artists, besides having opened up his own Techno club in Goa more recently. He is all set to charm the music enthusiasts in his upcoming show at the Bacardi Enchanted Valley Carnival.

Siddhant ‘Bullzeye’ Kapoor:

Siddhant Kapoor, son of Shakti Kapoor began his career as a disk jockey. Along with DJing, he marked his acting debut in Sanjay Gupta's crime film Shootout at Wadala. He played a cameo role and assisted Anurag Kashyap in the psychological thriller film Ugly. He still continues to rock as a DJ and is gearing up for his upcoming show at the Bacardi Enchanted Valley Carnival.

Shaveer Ahmed

Shaveer Ahmed is a litigation lawyer by day and an electronic artist/producer/DJ who goes by the moniker of FELIX by night.He began by experimenting with electronic music, specifically psytrance. He created a solo project for himself and has been releasing regular albums and solo tracks since 2010 most of which are available on internet music stores.He usually plays gigs on weekends, in and around Delhi as well as makes the time to play at festivals.

Khushi Soni

Khushi modestly enjoys the title of ‘The Bollywood Remix King’. It’s his Bollywood remixes for movies like Ra One, Desi Boyz, Student Of The Year , Aashiqui 2, etc. that have made him a household name in the Indian music fraternity. He’s the only DJ who was had the pleasure of working with Grammy winning artist Mr. A.R. Rahman. Besides DJing, he owns Fat Ninja which is a Pan Asian restaurant at HauzKhas Village, New Delhi and is spread over 5500 sq. feet with a beautiful view.

Megha Kawale

For over 11 years, Megha has spun the console with her throbbing tracks, beginning with the then- famous 1900s discotheque at the Taj Mahal Hotel in Mumbai to Club Cabana at the recent World Economic Forum at Davos in January 2010.With her inimitable yet distinctive style of blending original house music with tribal strains and minimalist sound, she is equally sought-after for her energetic fusions of Bollywood music with commercial hip-hop.

After winning the Miss Talented crown in Femina Miss India’s 2001 contest, she segued into gracing the fashion ramps. From the great classics like TarunTahiliani and Valentino to the funky Rocky S and Moschino, she has lent her elegant and cutting edge style to all their creations. She walks the ramp regularly for Lakme India Fashion Week, Wills India Fashion Week, the Couture Week, and MTV Fashion Awards.
