About
Piyush Mishra is a celebrated Indian artist — singer, composer, performer, actor—whosevoice has cemented him as a cultural icon. Born in Gwalior in 1962, he trained at theNational School of Drama and became a prominent force in Delhi’ s theatre circuit before moving to Mumbai, where his collaborations with directors like Anurag Kashyap (Gulaal, Gangs of Wasseypur) defined a new, fearless creative voice in Indian cinema. His iconic songs like “Aarambh Hai Prachand” and “Husna” showcase his poetic ferocity and deep social consciousness, blending rebellion, pain, and introspection in equal measure.
A self-described nonconformist, Mishra’s artistry defies boundaries; his words sting, his performances provoke, and his music moves. Whether on stage, on screen, or through his writings, he continues to embody an unfiltered voice of truth and passion, standing as one of the most authentic and uncompromising creative spirits in contemporary Indian art.
