Puneet has personally been my mentor and a very good friend. It's been a great experience working with him, right from getting the technicalities right in the mix to perceiving sound and expressing it in the best way possible. Hoping to always learn and work with you in the near future.
- Joshua Fernandes, Mix Engineer
It was a pleasure working with Puneet. Absolutely love his work. Understanding what we want as composers/singers and adding his own thoughts to it, is what I loved the most. Looking forward to working with him again.

It's been an honor working with Puneet Samtani, he's mastered a few of our tracks right from our most successful song 'The Warli Revolt' to mastering 100RBH's new EP release 'Bahas'. He gets the punch that we need while making hardcore Hip Hop Rap.
Big Ups!

Puneet Samtani is one of the great musicians I've had the great fortune of working with and being associated with. I first met him when he was working at Ranjit Bhai's studio and he was working on a project that I was also working with. A few years later when I wanted to get a few of my own tracks mixed, Puneet was the first person I thought of because of the way he had approached my voice in the song that I was working on earlier.
He generously worked on my tracks and also gave me a lot of inputs on how I should work on capturing the voice. Many years later when I wanted to release some of those tracks, he took them back from me and reworked them to make them more appropriate to the context that I was releasing them in.
I think that kind of integrity and honesty and commitment towards work, it's great to see. I also had the good fortune of singing a song that he had composed. The song was Jaadu and I had never sung a song like that. It was very different from the genres that I was exploring. Again he was inspiring and encouraging and I'm grateful to him for putting that kind of trust and faith in me.
We've been great friends in this journey of knowing each other and working with each other for the last 10 years or so. I wish him all the best from the bottom of my heart and great success and I wish I can be a part of many more of his ventures in the future too.
