I learnt to sing in Bengali, my mother tongue, then went on to sing in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati and every possible Indian language.

I appreciate art in any form. So it applies to clothes as well. On stage, I think people prefer me in Indian outfits... in fact, it goes with the kind of songs I sing as well. Indianness in the form of a sari, or a chaniya choli or jeans with something interesting, matches my style of singing.

As someone who worships music, I believe it can never be ugly!

I consider music to be very sacred and I feel I'm blessed to be born with a talent which allows me to make the best of it.

I believe that when the going gets tough, you should just hit pause. Assimilate what is happening for 10 minutes. Your thoughts will be much clearer.

The good thing is that there is a constant need for innovation, which is important in the evolution of music and sound.

To me,music is oxygen & I know that someday even if I can’t sing,I can always continue listening to it.
