Yamunanagar, Haryana — Rising independent rap artist Tanish Sharma, also known as Tekchand Sandal, is making headlines with his powerful story of struggle, passion, and self-made success. His journey from Panipat to Yamunanagar’s Kalyan Nagar proves that true art is born from fire, determination, and an unshakeable dream.
The turning point came when Tanish listened to Emiway’s viral hit “Kya Bolti Public” for the first time. The track ignited something within him, leading him to decide:
“If I become something, I want to be like this — or nothing at all.”

A Bold Beginning
In January 2025, Tanish penned his first-ever song, “No One With Me,” and released it in March. Despite receiving no major response, he refused to give up, embracing the journey instead of looking for shortcuts.
Struggles That Forged the Artist
His path was far from easy.
Determined to follow hip-hop with full heart, Tanish made a life-changing decision in April 2025 — he quit school and skipped his 12th board exams to commit himself fully to rap music.
With no team, no support system, and no resources, he stepped out to find work and fund his own musical journey. He worked tirelessly and continued to release a new track every month, showing consistency and commitment rarely seen in newcomers.

Strength, Support & Hip-Hop
Throughout his journey, two things kept him alive:
- His parents’ constant motivation
- The culture and energy of hip-hop
He also expresses deep gratitude to Aashish Masih, who played a significant role in guiding and supporting him during crucial moments.
Becoming a Versatile Independent Artist
Today, through discipline and relentless hard work, Tanish Sharma has transformed himself into a versatile, independent rap artist, dedicated to storytelling and authentic expression.
Tanish believes strongly in his philosophy:
“I didn’t know anything before; with hard work and time, everything is achievable. That’s how I became a VERSATILE independent rap artist.”
