Deora had his own band called Tightrope many years ago, and now, after shifting to Mumbai, has another act called Third Degree that plays the occasional gig.
It's no secret - especially after this newspaper had revealed the story about how he wowed legendary blues musician Buddy Guy with his guitar skills – that politician Milind Deora is also an accomplished musician.
He's in fact so good that he even had his own band called Tightrope while in Delhi many years ago, and now, after shifting back to Mumbai, has another act called Third Degree that plays the occasional gig.
It came as no surprise that when he was at the SoBo Fest held at World Trade Centre over the weekend, he did another impromptu musical turn. This time, it was with veteran singer Sharon Prabhakar, who pulled him up on stage during her performance. And did Deora disappoint? Not at all, going by the clip we heard of him strumming his stuff.
Milind is a blues guitarist and has several performances to his credit. Abhishek Bachchan's character in R Balakrishnan's 'Paa' was inspired by him. Deora is one of the youngest members of the current Lok Sabha. He became an MP at the age of 27.
