Jubin Nautiyal

The talented Jubin Nautiyal was born on 14th June 1989 in the city of Dehradun, Uttrakhand. He hails from a Brahmin family with roots in Jaunsar region. His father Mr. Ram Sharan Nautiyal is a politician as well as a businessman while his mother Mrs. Neena Nautiyal is a businesswoman as well. Jubin states that his father came from a small agricultural background and that he feels extremely proud that his father came so far starting from zero. He further says that he enjoys all the attention he gets considering the fact he has worked hard and that he doesn’t come from any ‘Bollywood family’ or has any ‘Bollywood connection.’ He did his schooling till the eighth grade from St. Joseph’s Academy, Dehradun. He continued school at Welham Boys’ school, Dehradun where he studied music as a subject and built his base in the teachings of Hindustani classical music. After completing his schooling, he enrolled in Mithibai College in Mumbai.

He states that he loves Mumbai and he feels like it’s his ‘Dehradun’. According to his parents, at the tender age of four, Jubin started singing and displaying a fondness towards music, taking his father’s love for singing. However, it was only when he was fifteen years old while studying at Welham Boys’ school, his awareness towards music grew and he started taking music seriously. He started learning classical music and at the same time learnt to play instruments like guitar, harmonium, drums and piano. During his college days, at the age of eighteen he met the legendary A.R. Rahman, who liked his voice and asked him to keep polishing as well as exploring his voice for a few more years before entering the industry, as ‘Mumbai isn’t a place for raw talent.’ According to Jubin, he believes himself to be lucky to meet the legend so early in his career and that he took his suggestions in a better way rather than the other way round.

He also recalls that it was the very same day that he had decided that he would like to work with Mr. Rahman someday. Taking the advice, he moved back to his hometown and started his training under his schoolteacher Mrs. Vandana Srivastava. He spent the next four years polishing and sharpening his skills in music. He travelled and learnt from different musicians.
