Bollywood is huge. Anything that's made in large quantity will evidently overshadow others. But that won't stop artistes from making albums. A person who has faith in his music will go ahead.

The confidence that we Indians are suddenly infused with while doing something wrong is absolutely commendable.

A. R. Rahman is truly India's Mozart. His music is celebrated worldwide.

My real guru are my experiences in life - the realisation that you are alone in this world came very early to me.

I am not a Ph.D. in economics or a doctorate in literature that I can afford to take my singing lightly. Even if I sing a jingle, I take it as seriously as oxygen.

I don't listen to Bollywood music much. But yes I listen to Indian music quite often and other non- film music.

For us Indians, I don't think English can ever exude that magic of emotions which our mother tongue can.
