Our beloved captain, a passionate singer since childhood, hailed from the esteemed Gupta family. Inspired by his mother, a talented sitarist, he nurtured a deep love for music. Music became his refuge, a way to celebrate life even through the toughest challenges. No matter how rigorous his journey was, every note he sang and every instrument he played filled his soul with joy and resilience. A gifted multi-instrumentalist, he played the ukulele, harmonium, and piano with great finesse.

Patriotic songs held a special place in his heart—from Sandese Aate Hai in his early years to Teri Mitti in his unit, his melodies were filled with pride and emotion. Music was not just his passion but also his source of motivation in his professional life. At home, he cherished playing music with his siblings and creating heartfelt melodies for their mother.

Now, in his absence, his family finds comfort in his music. His recorded songs are played at family gatherings, keeping his presence alive. His mother lovingly plays his harmonium, while Rishab strums his ukulele, reliving the cherished moments they once shared. Though he is no
longer physically present, his music continues to echo through their home, keeping his spirit alive in their hearts forever.
