The Jude Laws of Indian Indie Music
What constitutes charm is pretty difficult to pinpoint and fit into the parameters of a general consensus. But there is something about these men which makes us all men-loving creatures go weak in the knees. Here’s some true specimens of the male form in the lookers amongst the indie musicians, from the oh-so-dopey-eyed ones to the pulsating bicep wearers.
The copybook style of good looks can never go out of vogue, and if you want to do some glorious gazing, he’s your man. All the attention that he gets over the years could not be in vain after all, and it does not seem to be withering away anytime soon, for this man does not seem to age.
It’s not just the music that he will trip you out with. It’s an extension of Nucleya’s avatar we would like to believe, the way he rocks a kurta as well as that body-hugging tee, while rocking the night. It is only this man who can manage to look sexy while dressed up as King Dhritarashtra from Mahabharat.

Charm comes easy to poster boy Sahej Bakshi.
The copybook style of good looks can never go out of vogue, and if you want to do some glorious gazing, he’s your man. All the attention that he gets over the years could not be in vain after all, and it does not seem to be withering away anytime soon, for this man does not seem to age.
Street Boy good looks – DJ Nucleya.
It’s not just the music that he will trip you out with. It’s an extension of Nucleya’s avatar we would like to believe, the way he rocks a kurta as well as that body-hugging tee, while rocking the night. It is only this man who can manage to look sexy while dressed up as King Dhritarashtra from Mahabharat. If you disbelieve us, here’s some proof.
Avial’s Tony John with his smouldering gaze.
You wouldn’t get what we mean unless you’ve seen him perform live. Yes, Anand Paul might or might not have been the better vocalist, but we don’t care. And we can’t look anywhere else once he’s on stage, we see all of that intensity that went into Velutha (the gorgeous fisherman whom Ammu can’t stop thinking about in God of Small Things) once he’s on stage. Ever seen Tony-rocking-the-mundu-silhouette parting the stage lights? Just saying.
The Fuzzy Logic of Arfaaz Kagalwala.
Maybe if there were a male Alice, this would be him. He describes his journey at Fuzzy Logic as a “…musical adventure which began at the tender age of three, when a tremendous fall, (cushioned only by the thick tuft of fuzz on his head) rewired his neuro-impulses causing an undying love for music and a unique approach to sound.” Tell us, will that warm fuzzy logic not melt the iciest of hearts?
Srijan Mahajan, apart from being part of Fuzz Culture and Parikrama makes looking good serious business.
Often, he will let his biceps do the talking, when it comes to playing a drum set. Yes, we mean the way those babies pulsate while in performance and put up a show of their own in tandem with the building tempo of his set and our heart-beat.
The agony and ecstasy of Suryakant Sawhney.
There’s something incredibly sexy about his languid gaze, the snake-like piercing thing they do, effective even over photographs – a primordial act of knowing perhaps. We would like to believe that somewhere in that depth there are some tales to share.
The flamboyance of Imaad Shah.
Yup, that skinny boy in those suspenders and that silk white shirt. So delectable, you could put a hat on it, if you wish. Imaad loves to be that disco boy with that flamboyant taste on stage. We definitely encourage a little bit of narcissism, for nothing spells sexy better than confidence.
