'''Nikhil Paul George''' is a British [[music producer]], singer, [[composer]] and guitarist of Indian origin. His work has extensively featured on high grossing mainstream Indian films.

Known to work out of [[Mumbai]] and [[London]], with further links in [[Los Angeles|LA]] and [[Nashville]], he often records and collaborates with musicians from around the world. Notable of these are Indian composer [[Pritam]], musicians from London orchestras such as the [[London Symphony Orchestra]] and [[London Philharmonic Orchestra]] and various traditional folk musicians from Africa and central and eastern Europe.

He studied at the [[Royal College of Music]] in London, graduating in film music in 2009. In the Indian sub-continent and its diaspora, he is most known for being the voice behind the songs "Main Kya Karoon" and "Aashiyaan" (''[[Barfi!]]'', 2012) and "Nazdeekiyan" (''[[Shaandaar]]'', 2015).

His major last known work was completed on the [[Disney]] production ''[[Jagga Jasoos]]'' (2017). Currently believed to be working on the album ''Love In America'' as part of his social enterprise NPG Music, which focuses on mentoring, empowering and publishing music creators.
