- On singing for HUM SAATH SAATH HAIN... Well, I think you can call this the first break with Rajshri Productions... and I've known everybody at Rajshri from a long time ... its a great feeling for having come and sung for this prestigious film.
- On Raamlaxman... The strong point of Mr.Raamlaxman's music is that... its very simple and yet very melodic I think ... his strength is simplicity.
- On the music of HUM SAATH SAATH HAIN...
You know last evening I was sitting with both my sons... I have two
sons... 11 & 5 and I was trying to teach them music and we had agreat
time. And I think this whole movie ... depicts ... it talks about how
close we can get and all the songs also, it kind of binds the whole
family together. So... I think its great music.
- Hari Haranji, when we heard the song Yeh to sach hai... the song you have sung for Mohnish Bahl, we could actually see Mohnish performing. We could sense the character of Mohnish. How much of an actor is there in a singer ? Ah... there's a very important reason behind this because... since I was doing all the songs for the character... thats Mohnish Bahl... And... Sooraj & Rajji they had called me... invited me to the office.. in fact they narrated all the situations and the songs ... and also the character. Soorajji... actually took pains to totally give me a countdown on the character and actually I knew for whom I was singing... I knew the person for whom I was singing and I think thats what helped me to... kind of emote. - The song Yeh to sach hai.. sung by you as you know will be picturised on Vivek, the charactered played by Mohnish Bahl, who sings this song for his parents. While singing this song, did you personally feel for or remember your parents ? How did you find this song situation? Well... I am very close to my parents and my mother. I lost my father when I was young... so the whole song is in praise of our parents... which is a great song and I could relate to the song because in my life, my career, the first person who has stood behind me to make me what I am today... is my mother... so I could relate to it. - The song ABCD sung by you is a picnic song, where all the youngsters are going on a picnic. How did you find this song situation ? How much did you enjoy singing this song ? Ah... well... I think its a very family oriented thing because half the time... the elders are teaching the younger ones about ABCD & its quite a nice song... ya.... its something like singing Do a dear a female dear ... so you're singing ABCDEFG ... its the same kind of a feel.
A family which sings together, stays together.... |
