Vishal Srivastav is a professional singer based out of the finance capital of India, Mumbai. Vishal, back in his struggling days, used to drive auto rickshaw in Delhi. His big break occurred when he participated in the singing reality show on Sony TV, X Factor India. Vishal was born in Kanpur, but he moved to Delhi to educate his wife and to become a singer. Vishal's moving performances left the three judges on X Factor – Sonu Nigam, Shreya Ghoshal and Sanjay Leela Bhansali – speechless with tears.
