i saw this man sometimes when i was jogging. i first met him a year ago. when he played for me he said he wasn't playing for the money and that he had a job. and he just plays here because he likes to. and i met him again today when i was walking by. he was playing "honto se chu lo" by late jagjit singh. i watched him and asked him if he could play it again for me and that i dont have the money. he smiled and said its not about the money. and he played it for me, and i recorded it. i do not know the caliber of his skill with violen but i do know he is passionate about it. and i also heard him say he could play flute and saxophone. he could sing too. he says he doesnt do it for the money but everyone needs money. he plays at like 9-12pm (just an estimate) phase 4, bahria town, Rawalpindi.
