As niece of legendary singers Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle, Padmini Kolhapure is only glad that her son Priyaank Sharma has ventured into music-making, professionally. Under the label Dhamaka Records, Sharma made his debut as a music entrepreneur with the track Hum Hindustani, last week, roping in artistes like Amitabh Bachchan, Shraddha Kapoor, and Tara Sutaria, among others. “When he told me he wanted to [create this label], I thought it was a fantastic idea from someone belonging to a music-family. Hum Hindustani was created to spread a positive vibe in negative tunes [of the pandemic]. We wanted to highlight the desire to serve that was evident in a lot of people,” says the yesteryear actor.
