Rahul da CunhaGanpatrao Gaitonde lifted a 50 kg dumbell and adjusted his Ayushman Khurrana puff in the mirror simultaneously, when I met him. He said to me: "I am Ganpatrao Gaitonde, but you please refer to me as DJ Gun. Woh mera stage name hai! I am top DJ in Girgaum area. Our Baba, manje, our father only started our company 'GAITONDE BAND BAAJA'. See boss, Ganesh chaturti ka time, hamara family ka tradition hai. Baba has been playing drums and music for visarjans for 30 years now. He is retiring next year. When the client wants simple only, they call mera bada bhai, Gondurao. Gondurao yeh sab filmi event, Filmfare Nite mein drums bajaata hai. He is a little old fashioned, not like me.

All young young peoples, they ask for me, DJ Gun. I play all new new music—Honey Yo Yo Singh, Mika Singh, all Bhai's hits, some of my original compositions. I have the biggest biceps in this drumming business. Five-five hours I play dhol non stop. For that, I work out six days a week. Rest of the year I am DJ Gun. I play in many many party-sharty. Last year only, Vidyut Jamwal called me and Tiger Shroff has asked for my number."
