The tech world is filled with esoteric descriptions. So when we enter Shubham Bansal’s apartment in Chandivali, we are wary. Bansal, 29, has developed a product that promises to help a learner get the hang of a guitar in a one-hour session. It’s called Guitar Bro, and so we question the name. His response doesn’t sound like Latin to us. “It’s a bro that makes you pro,” he answers, adding, “It’s meant to be your friend. And when I was thinking of a name, this sounded pretty cool too.” Frankly, for someone who’s never laid hands on any musical instrument barring the flute during our school band days — that requires zero talent — his response is encouraging.

Don’t give up
