Zaheer Choudhary and Ansari Mateen are talented young boys from Govandi. One of them works during the day while the other attends junior college, but at night they are artists who write songs and harbour dreams of becoming professional rappers. They are being mentored by @drj_sohail @bruhhitssdanish and @tashthebeatboxer under the @govandiartsfestival, and with their help, the duo composed their own rap. Rehearsing till 1-2 am in the night for days, they performed in front of an audience for the first time in Delhi, a new city for them, and left everyone spellbound. Grateful to @defindia for inviting CDA to be a part of A-CODE and giving our mentees a platform to perform. Check out the coverage their performance received in today's @middayindia newspaper (swipe left)Zaheer and Mateen are among the 45 mentees from Govandi receiving mentorship in a theme of their choosing - Theatre, Rap and Music, Public Art, Filmmaking and Photography - and are gearing up for the Festival in February to showcase their talent to the city and the world at large. Be a part of their journey, and follow and support the Festival at @govandiartsfestival#celebratingcommunities #creatingjoy #IndiaUKTogether #SeasonofCulture #cultureconnectsus #rapmusic #mtvhustle #swiggy #mtvhustle #mtvhustle2 #hustlekarhaasilkar #hustlekesquadbosses #hustlewithbadshah #indianrapper #indianhiphop #artsfestival #communityled #youthled #britishcouncil #publichousing #affordablehousing #socialarchitecture #socialdesign
