It’s time to support different genres of music and solo artistes for Music to truly burgeon. I’m elated to know of Ganesh’s album ’Let’s Party’ with big videos and melodious songs release. I’m sure the journey must have been tough, so I hope the outcome is pure celebration. I hope this is a harbinger of great times to come for all non-film musicians. Golden Luck to Ganesh and everyone who has music in their Soul!"

Says Ganesh, "It’s taken me three years to prepare for this album, as I was involved in all aspects right from directing, producing, singing as well as acting in the music videos."

After being titled the only Indian pop act to produce, write, direct and choreograph his own music with his debut album ’G’ in 2005 - Ganesh is back this time around ,bigger better than ever with ’Lets Party’ starring some of the biggest faces in Bollywood.

Talking about how he managed to bring these A-list actors on board for the music videos, Ganesh says, "I share a bond with these stars. They know that if I have asked them to be a part of something I’m doing, it will not be mediocre."

Says a source, "Ganesh believes that the pop industry is slowly dying and wanted to offer audiences something that would recreate and revamp that magic with a more contemporary touch and with some of the biggest faces in Bollywood - he hopes that will happen with his latest album ’Lets Party’! "
