Guru Randhawa Recalls Struggles In 2012
Guru Randhawa took to social media to share memories from the early stages of his career, posting old singing videos and remembering the people who helped him pursue his passion.
The singer revealed that recording and sharing videos was difficult because they did not even have a suitable phone. He specifically remembered G.S. Chandhok, who arranged a camera through a friend, and Parmeet, who accompanied him on the keyboard during their recording sessions.

“People see the success today, but they don’t see the nights of 2012. Back then, we didn’t even own a phone good enough to record a Facebook video. I still get emotional thinking about @gschandhok paji borrowing a camera from a friend just so we could shoot after sunset, and Parmeet sitting beside me, pouring his heart into the keyboard,” he wrote.
Guru also recalled leaving his village with a clear ambition to work hard and provide a better life for his family. He acknowledged the contribution of his friends, who continued supporting him even when he had little to offer in return.
"When I left my pind, I carried just one promise: to work until I could give my family a life they could be proud of. Every step since has been built on that promise, and on the shoulders of brothers who stood by me when I had nothing to offer in return.”
