“I love Britney and have been following her since childhood. So, when I decided to make my first single, it, of course, had to be dedicated to her!” Pran told Covai Post over phone. He is famous in the A Cappella scene in Delhi and even boasts his own group Imfresnate. For those who are uninitiated, A Cappella involves making music without using any instrument. Yes, talk about improvisation!

But it was not all hunky-dory for Pran. When things got tough, Pran had to rely on crowdfunding to produce ‘Ek Tu’. In fact, almost the entire video was shot through public funding.

“I was passionate about this project and wanted to make it happen anyhow. I am so grateful to all my well-wishers who contributed to this video,” Pran said, adding having a large following on Instagram helped.

In an age of remixes, ‘Ek Tu’ is a refreshing take on romance and tells a beautiful love story. Pran is not only the singer, he also features in the video.

The song has been directed by Nishant Joshi of GoBro Studios. While Mohit Joshi is the Cinematographer, Mandeep Singh is the music director, Yamini Joshi is the stylist. Bobby Genesis, Soumik Hazarika, and Brin Desai are the Sound Engineers and mastering was handled by Blake Lagrange.

The young group is a collection of dreamers and doers like Pran, who is multi-faceted. This Assamese singer is also a a part-time model and dancer by profession and is trained in Western as well as Hindustani classical music. Pran has also dabbled in Belly dancing and Ballet too.
