Siyara 2025 – A Musical Love Story
On a humid July afternoon in Mumbai, Krish Kapoor strummed his guitar in a dim rehearsal studio, sweat glistening on his brow. His music had soul, but it lacked recognition. At twenty‑four, the rising musician carried ambition and pain: a troubled past he hid beneath bravado. He craved a breakthrough—but none came.
