Hariharan joins Cyrus Broacha to celebrate 50 years in music — from Carnatic training in Matunga to Billboard Awards with Colonial Cousins.
In this unforgettable episode, Hariharan shares:
How he lied at the Oberoi Hotel just to meet Mehdi Hassan
Winning his first break through a music competition
Singing 15,000+ songs across 10+ languages
The organic jam session that created Colonial Cousins
Performing “Krishna” across the world
Elton John being a fan
Discovering KK before he became a star
Why technique gives singers longevity
And why music should never be “typecast”
A masterclass in humility, riyaaz, and reinvention.
This is not just an interview — it’s a musical history lesson.
