Early Life and Education edit

Ameya was always inclined towards music since early childhood – this was largely due to his mother Dr. Mrs. Anuradha Dabli, who is a trained classical and light music exponent – and who, as a student of the legendary Dr. Prabha Atre ji – has ensured that Ameya was always provided with the right training (riyaaz) since he was 5 years of age.

Another facet of Ameya’s musical personality is his love for Sanskrit language and chanting of shlokas which were introduced to him by his father Prof. P.
