Dhammaâu00c2u0080u00c2u0088Wings maintains a flow of new releases, through their official YouTube channel, and they regularly perform on television

Long hair, stylish shades and electric guitars are easy pickings to identify a band. Kabeer Shakya, the founder and vocalist of Dhamma Wings, is no different, but his inclination towards Gautam Buddha, Dr BR Ambedkar and the Dalits sets him apart from the regular musicians in the band fraternity. "My intent is to spread the message of equality. Even after 70 years of Independence, Dalits are discriminated in India, which should stop," he says, ahead of his gig at Performing Resistance, an event by Godrej India Culture Lab that will explore the intersection between caste, history and musical traditions in Maharashtra.
