Born in a family of traditional flute players of Varanasi, Paras Nath had shown a remarkable inclination towards music from childhood. He started training in the field of this most wonderful wind instrument from the age of five, under the expert guidance of his father Pandit Amar Nath (a renowned flutist himself). He has inherited the art of flute playing, as this has been a legacy of the family for the last four centuries. Paras gave his first flute performance together at the tender age of nine. He has also played many solo concerts and has played a flute for the movie Oh My God starring Paresh Rawal.
