Ballu Flute is a professional flute artist based out of Indore, Madya Pradesh. Born in 1972, Baljinder Singh (Ballu) graduated in civil engineering from SGSITS-Indore and began his career as a civil engineer where he found himself engaged in creating a concrete jungle, which was satisfying his business person but was not able to satisfy the hardcore musician inside. The deep-seated musician in the 'The Melodious Sikh' was restless and struggling hard to surface prominently. During his career as a civil engineer, his favourite relaxing companion was the flute which facilitated the release of all his worldly tensions and pressures. Baljinder groomed his inner musician under the guidance and inspiration of Shri Gouri Shanker Yadav, a blind music tutor. Within a short span of time, Baljinder started proving his mettle. In spite of the fact that he does not hail from a family of musicians, this fact makes his achievements more remarkable. Baljinder further trained under Shri Kamal Kamble, an A graded musician of All India Radio. Baljinder has been one of the few Indian flautists who has made a conscious effort to reach out, expand the audience, and aroused the interest of the common man in the flute. His dedication and talent allowed him to gain eye-catching popularity. He has received many awards. He was also awarded the 'Soor Shri' by Ushna Raktha, an institute involved in promoting Indian music and culture. He was a part of numerous professional recordings with artists of repute like Ravindra Jain, Suresh Wadekar, Udit Narayan, Anuradha and Kavita Poudwal.
