Gautam Gambhir and Roshan Gamare - beatboxers whose works featured in Gully Boy - on their latest track, Aamchi Mumbai, that`s a tribute to Mumbai, and making a career in a field that they know holds little promise

As though paying homage to the city of dreams, beatboxing duo Gautam Gambhir and Roshan Gamare are set to present for home-bound citizens a nostalgic offering that recreates sounds synonymous with Mumbai’s hustle and bustle. “Right from the sounds heard in our city streets, near the vada pav joints, to the phrases heard in local trains, or announcements at stations, this track aims to recreate all of that. You could call it an audio that replicates the essence of Mumbai,” says Gambhir, whose previous works include songs in Gully Boy.
Driving across the city streets, the duo paid heed to the sounds that define it, and recreated them using beatboxing techniques. It takes a fair share of toil to ace them, but Gamare asserts that the art isn’t one to favour those unwilling to invest time. “Only when you head to the gym every day can you build a body. Similarly, this art is something that you need to practice repeatedly. It must only be taken to if you enjoy it.”
