“It was during Covid that my wife Sheeba (actor) suggested that I feature in a few memes. Initially, I was reluctant but then the response was wonderful. There was a lot of free time during the pandemic, so we started doing one video every week. We both contribute to the script but usually the ends are entirely ad-lib by me,” he smiles.

Their popular ones are those “where Sheeba pretends to be dumb and gets to hear from Akashdeep” and all those typical husband-wife banters with no filters work the best. People love their honest performance. And, the actor is enjoying a new vocation now that there is queue of sponsors for the videos.

“I have always loved to multi-task and get excited with new opportunities. I want to challenge myself all the time. That’s why I didn’t stock up on just one thing. In fact apart from being an actor, director, producer and social media influence, I have a lot more of an entrepreneur in me who keeps trying various businesses also on the side,” he shares.

Akashdeep’s sense of humour and comedy timing are being praised. “I’ve not worked on anything to make these videos. I am a sucker for comedies, be it films or OTT or TV or plays. So perhaps that likeness has added to the natural no-filter approach in these reels,” he says.

Woody Allen is the actor’s inspiration when it comes to comedy. “Then there is Moin Akhtar from Pakistan. Here in India, I love watching Sanjay Mishra, Johny lever, Sunil Grover again and again and again. There are many others whom I love. I like the genre per say,” adds Akashdeep.

Koyaliya Bole is the fifth track of Neha’s ‘Bandish Based Originals’ series on her own YouTube channel. Neha recently sang Nasha Ishq ka for the film Nikamma and Oh Mama and Rabbit for Ayushman Khurana’s Anek.

Neha elaborates about this unique concept “As someone who has trained in Hindustani classical music for several years I have always wanted to incorporate this art form in my independent tracks. It was this thought with which I decided to revamp my favourite Raag Bandishes into more contemporary and personalised versions. I started penning new lyrics and notations to the various Bandishes I knew and recreated them with Rupjit Das who has done the music production of my series released over the past one year”, says Neha.

After collaborating with renowned vocalists like Sonu Nigam, Vishal Mishra, Pawandeep Rajan and Ash King this is her first track with Abhay Jodhpurkar.

Talking about her association with Abhay, she added, “It’s been a privilege to collaborate with Abhay Jodhpurkar as he is an extraordinary vocalist. When I made him hear the first draft of Koyaliya Bole, he was very gracious and immediately agreed to become a part of it. As a lyricist and composer, I am always trying to blend the traditional and contemporary and Abhay’s singing is the perfect combination of two. His classical base is phenomenal and can blend into to any genre with precision”.

“The way Abhay brought in nuances of Raag Malkuans, while also adding a little bit of vibrato and falsetto, is exactly what took this track to the next level” Neha elaborates.

Talking about his experience Abhay Jodhpurkar concludes, “Neha has revamped the song very beautifully. I had a great experience working with her. The song is very soulful and has a blend of Indian classical music and a very indie essence to it”.
