He received his early education at his village school and later joined D.A.V. College for further studies, but he had to discontinue his education due to financial difficulties.
Despite this setback, he did not give up on his dreams and started working private jobs to support himself and his family while continuing to sing and write songs whenever possible.
His music career began around 2010 when he started performing at local music events, though he faced many rejections in the beginning. His talent was eventually noticed by respected Punjabi artist Garry Sandhu (Gurmukh Singh Sandhu), who became his mentor and gave him the stage name "Khan Saab".
The name was chosen because Sikhs and Muslims are traditionally called "Khan Saab" in their community.
