She revealed that she began taking him to public events when he was just two months old, and he instantly developed a love for the instrument.

His passion was so intense that he often stood beside the drummer during performances, refusing to sit down.

Despite his mother's efforts to discourage him, the boy's love for drumming grew.

He would insist on playing drums before engaging in other activities, including reading.

His passion even led him to sleep with sticks, and his creative expression, unfortunately, damaged household items.

The boy's father, recognising his son's genuine talent and dedication, surprised him with a professional drum set.

The moment he presented the gift, the boy's face lit up with joy, and his mother filmed it.
