Na Jaa was an ideal example of perfect team-work and modularity. Different people carried the tasks assigned to them with absolute meticulousness and the result is for everyone to see. Some people who were the backbone of the project definitely need a mention and applause.

Although there were just so many people involved in the whole episode... right from the recording of the song to the shooting of the video, video editing and finally the live performance but the few who did really slogged (very) hard to make this dream a reality are worth a mention.


Amit Ranjan Chitranshi (Civil Engineering) >> See Profile <<
It all started with him. The person responsible for making Na Jaa happen.
His initiative and faith in his team was the motivating factor for all. Currently in Final Year, Civil Engg. at IET, he not only composed the music of the track with interludes based on ragas but also gave the lyrics which he insisted upon being in Urdu so as to be reminiscent of Lucknow’s rich culture. 
Be it finding sponsors or making the na-jaa CD's all night, he has been right at the helm of affairs since the beginnThe sole guide and navigator of the project Na Jaa.
Amit is currently working for Indian Oil Corp Ltd.
Suraj Verma (Civil Engineering) >> See Profile <<
He composed the prelude of Na Jaa and played guitar (rhythm). And it’s been only 2 months since he started playing the guitar. Stands as an example for those still eying to break into the world of six strings. Also in Final Year, Civil Engg. he is a restless soul when somebody takes his guitar away and keeps the moods alive of people around through his snippets of entertainment. 
Suraj verma is currently working as a .NET Project Engineer at WIPRO, Bangalore.
Sabia Khan (Computer Science Engineering) >> See Profile <<
Has been the part of the project since Day-1. Meticulously planned each frame of the video and spent hours and days to bring that idea into reality. So, if you liked the video, you know who to give credits to. The video wouldn’t have been the same without the articulate and coherent planning that she did put in.
From recording studio to the live show (as a rocking compeerer), she has been there all the while . All the write-up’s of this site have been written by her. [Barring this one where she was modest enough to leave it blank!!] 
Sabia is currently working with TCS, Delhi.
Gaurav Gupta (Electrical Engineering) 
When Amit proposed to append a video with the song, he approached his close friend Gaurav who happens to be a student of BBD Lucknow, Final Year, Electrical Engg and has a knack for video filming and photography. He not only made the video possible but has been with the team at every stage like a true helping hand. Even though not being from the same college he’s given the students of IET a gift they will never forget.
Was the 'Video Director' along with Sabia and spent countless hours to accomplish that level of perfection that is visible in the video.  
You hear the song once, and the mellifluous voice keeps resounding in your head. And if you haven’t quite noticed, they are two voices blending beautifully and brewing in unison. The vocals have been given by:
Rajat Nigam (CSE)

Vinay Bhatt (Civil Engg. )

He is a name to reckon with at IET for his mesmerizing singing skills. Currently in Final Year , Computer Science, hopes to go a long way in music industry and we hope Na Jaa gives him that required go ahead He has been with Na Jaa since its inception. A student of Final Year, Civil Engg, his voice has a breath of innocence which truly voices the emotion and pain of a student leaving his college, as is so apparent in Na Jaa
Both Rajat and Vinay are currently working with Wipro, Bangalore.
Amitesh Singh (Electrical Engineering) >> See Profile <<
An integral part of the team, he is a student of Final Year , Electrical Engg. Helped in managing things around and was at our end everytime we needed a soldier to run errands. Was great help in Creative Designing.
Did the 'lead role' in the video... video starts and ends with him !!
Amitesh is currently working with TCS in Delhi.
