Loy Mendonsa: I'm often asked how we function within a trio. I tell them you must try sitting on a two-legged chair. - Shankar–Ehsaan–Loy

Shankar Mahadevan: We come from different musical backgrounds. It's our USP too. We work more like a band rather than just composers. All our compositions come out during jam sessions. I am sure we will never spilt because we understand and respect each other's creativity.

Loy Mendonsa: Ehsaan gets very upset if it sounds remotely like anything else. Then he'll get sleepless nights. Then next morning we'll see him with dark circles

Shankar Mahadevan: Classical music is a great advantage you have. Be it during composing or arranging, classical music is like grammar.
