He released his debut album titled "Na Bhulana" in the end of 2016, after a decade of making music. The album contains 11 individual tracks and is titled on the hit song "Na Bhulana" which was also the title track of his drama Moray Saiyaan.[11][12] He won the award for the "Album of The Year" at the 16th Lux Style Awards for "Na Bhulana".[13][14] His drama Shayad is currently airing on Geo Entertainment where he is performing impressively.[15][16]
