Chandrakant belts out melodies during his time off from his stressful duty.

While talking to the media, he said, “Playing the flute has been my hobby ever since I was in high school. However, due to long working hours, I could not manage time to play the flute at home. So, I decided to do something with the 'lathi' and made a flute out of it.”
