More about Ayaan's family, career

He is the son of Salman's sister, Alvira Khan Agnihotri, and her husband, Atul Agnihotri. He also has a sister, Alizeh Agnihotri. While Ayaan's sister Alizeh made her acting debut with Farrey and earned immense praise, he decided to become a musician.

For the unversed, Salman had earlier collaborated with Ayaan on the song You Are Mine, composed by Vishal Mishra. The rap portions were performed by Ayaan. He also released his single Universal Laws and has been working on his own EP.

Although Ayaan comes from a well-known family, it took him eight years to find a producer and release his music. Last year, when Hindustan Times spoke to him and asked the reason behind it, he had said, “I kept my writing and music very confidential because even though I had a fond passion for it, I didn't feel that I was there yet. I knew I sounded bad, and my accent was heavier."

"It didn't sound appropriate for the format. I knew my delivery wasn't as good, and my breath control wasn't great. There was a lot of scope for improvement. If I'm going to go out there and tell everybody that this is what I'm going to do, then I'd better be good at it. And that's why it was eight years of just refining,” he had added.
