From the age of six, He has studied and played Dutar, an ancient Iranian and Afghani instrument. He had his first live performance when he was only eight years old. Since then, he has been regularly invited to perform on stage inside and outside Iran. He had the honor to learn this instrument from some of the greatest Dutar players and musicians in Iran.
