In January 1993, Pritam joined the Film and Television Institute in Pune to undertake a course in sound recording and sound engineering.

The lyrics of the song Aabaad Barbaad by Pritam talk about the turmoil and confusion in a person's mind when their heart is torn between two choices: whether to destroy everything or to make everything comfortable. The lyrics depict how a person feels when caught in this difficult situation, where no decision seems right or wrong. They express that sometimes wrong choices lead to the right path, and vice versa. The lyrics also describe the conflict between the heart and the mind and how it can be a difficult battle.
The lines "Meetha sa yeh zahr main to peeta rahunga, tu khuda na sahi, main to sajda karunga" roughly translates to "Even if this potion is sweet poison, I will keep drinking it. Even if you are not God, I will worship you." These lines represent the confusion and desperation of a person in love, who is ready to accept any consequence of their choices.
Overall, the lyrics of Aabaad Barbaad talk about the conflict of emotions and choices in a person's life, and how one's decisions can have unpredictable outcomes.
