There is a very big forgiving side in me that keeps me very light in my heart and happy.

It's not that we don't have talent in our country; the talent is, in fact, not required today.

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.

I have to say that my biggest Award is performing in front of my fans. Their love is my award.

My father has been the silent force behind my success. My mother has been a constant source of guidance in my career.

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.

I actually have a lot of couples coming & telling me that one of my songs was instrumental in strengthening their romance.
