Parleen started singing at the age of 3 and right from his childhood he started acing Inter School Competitions. He was always upfront and stupendous in sports as well as other extracurricular activities.
Having the desirable and exceptional management skills, Parleen was also the Head Boy of Army Public School Gwalior in class 10th as well as the head boy of Air Force School Ambala Cantt in class 12th.
At the young age of 17 he even represented the state of Haryana in Delhi for a national singing competition organised by Sangam Kala Group.
It was this competition after which he never looked back.
He bagged the Best Solo Singer award at his college fest in 1st year itself.
Next the Idian Idol 2 happened where he reached top 50 in piano round but sadly got rejected.
But it was never his forte to give up so he took it as a challenge to work hard and try again.
Therefore, he took a drop from college for 1 year to prepare day and night for Indian Idol 3 which was yet to happen.
Parleen’s perseverance and commitment was seen in Indian Idol 3 where he competed with many proficient singers and the result is in front of everybody today as he successfully reached top 8 and continues to reach the heights even today.
