As a child, he had little interest in music. His grandfather Late Yunus Khan was among the first to note his musical talents, and for some time trained him. However, he received his main training from his father Ustad Sahadat Rana Khan, initially at his house. A strict disciplinarian, Ustad Sahadat Rana Khan would insist on voice training (Swar Sadhana) from four in the morning, and make Sadakat practice one note of the scale for hours on end. A whole day would be spent practising just a single note. It was not until he was 14 that Sadakat began to truly enjoy his musical training.
In December 2020, Sadakat Aman Khan collaborated with artists such as DJ Shiv and Siddharth to fuse Indian Classical Harmonium with Hardcore-Metal.
