Earlier in his journey, associations with established entertainers and music artists helped bring him into the industry; he has been linked professionally with Punjabi singers over time.

On a personal level, Kalsi is a fitness enthusiast who undertook a substantial weight-loss transformation, shedding around 35 kg over six months through changes to diet and exercise.
