His remixes won the MTV IMMIES’ best remix award two years in a row, so it’s no surprise that Mumbai-born DJ Suketu is trusted by the Bollywood industry to remix most of its tunes. Here, he sits down with BK for a quick Q&A before his one-off gig in Bangkok.

As a child: Well-behaved and sincere.
First job: Playing music at my college festivals.
Rule for life: Music makes the world go round.
Best gig you’ve ever been to: At the Commonwealth Games’ closing ceremony in Delhi where I played in front of 65,000 people alongside 21 of India’s finest singers and musicians.
Most inspirational person: My dad and my wife.
Last lie: Told a music company I was too busy to take up their work. The truth is I didn’t like the song they wanted me to remix.

One word to describe your sound: Always new, fresh and interesting.
Can’t leave home without: My iPhone/iPad.
