Indian - Musician

In India we are creating mainstream hip hop music, than what real rap music is. The lyrics aren't that personal, since most of the music is catering to Bollywood. It's just trivial. It's a fashion here.

Badshah

There is nothing else is India which is as popular as Bollywood. Look at Indian classical music, how big and how respected it is in the West, but here in India, no one is interested.

Shankar Mahadevan

In India, Bollywood music enjoys a mass appeal while independent/non-film music has a niche audience.

Sonu Kakkar

I feel India thrives on playback singing and Bollywood music. It does not understand the culture of non-film music.

Neha Bhasin

Ultimately it's just music - whether I'm catering to the Bollywood audience or the indie audience. I just approach every type of music the way I am, and how my personality is.

Amit Trivedi

I'm into indie music. I think indie is going to bring back the spirit in music. There was a time when it was all about accommodating the music business, the music was getting tasteless, but the spirit is back.

Yoko Ono

Indie music is 'it' now. It's kind of a revolution to the music: 1980s, 1990s music was getting very sanitized; they were complying with the music industry. Music was getting more and more dead in a way. Now, because of the social climate that's very severe, the artists are compelled to start being real. It's really great that indie music is now.

Yoko Ono

I think you should do Bollywood once you are all into your own market. Doing a Bollywood song for a particular actor or producer, you should be known in the world outside of Bollywood music.

Guru Randhawa

There is so much talent in the country, and not all of that necessarily is confined to Bollywood. There are some great musicians from the independent music scenario in India making some great music.

Shankar Mahadevan

I really do listen to all types of music, not only rock, but everything from good pop music - which is usually older pop music - to R&B and indie rock. I love indie rock more than a lot of the commercial stuff that you'd expect.

Amy Lee

Amy Lee

I am undoubtedly a 100 percent Bollywood product, but my heart truly lies in making music for the world and taking India global.

Armaan Malik

Bollywood is there; the film industry is thriving, and it's huge, and it's everywhere. Anytime I travel abroad and I say I'm an actor from India, they're like, 'Oh, Bollywood!' And I say, 'Umm, not yet!'

Parvathy

In India only sex and Bollywood sell. So if you are not using either of them, forget launching any product, sport or business in India.

Raj Kundra

India should not have any ties with Pakistan, be it Bollywood or cricket. I am shocked that Bollywood is saying that cricket and movies should be kept ahead of national sentiments.

Gautam Gambhir

It's such a pleasure hosting 'Indie Hain Hum' season 2. My love for Indie artists and music has grown and shown me a whole new dimension after I stepped in as a host and RJ for this show.
