Musician Rahgir’s music carries messages concerning the environment, heritage and its conservation. Hailing from Kandela, a small town in Jaipur, he has a good grasp on Hindi lyrics, which are devoid of words like “love storiyan”. If you liked Aadmi Bhutiya Hai from the Pankaj Tripathi-starrer Sherdil: The Pilibhit Saga, which was composed by him, check out his other work here.
