An award means a lot to me. It brings happiness along with a kind of fear. It brings fear because the award is the responsibility which audiences have put on us. So a singer winning an award should always try to give best of him to the audiences.

Titles or awards are not the mark of your success. They are the beginning of a life-long sadhana.

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

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

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