Performing live and shooting music videos are my two absolute favorite things to do in my career. Being on the stage from my perspective is one of the best moments of a true artist.

The process of this video was very interesting and at the same time challenging. It took me three weeks to complete the whole idea of the video.

It wasn’t an easy task to complete but, we all knew that hard work pays off.
