As young boys, Salim and Sulaiman Merchant enjoyed watching their father, Sadruddin, sing and perform in public.

A composer and 14-year veteran of the Telugu-language film industry in South India, Sadruddin Merchant moved to Mumbai in 1969 where he manufactured musical instruments. He also played the piano, saxophone, guitar and drums, recorded devotional albums, led the Darkhana Scouts orchestra and often performed during Jamati celebrations.
