A Quote by Kumar Sanu

There are two things that I hold close to my heart. One is that I got the opportunity to playback sing for actor Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and second was working with playback singer Lata Mangeshkar.
I always enjoyed singing and working with the late Kishore Kumar. He was a legendary playback singer, an actor, and a producer/director.
Lata Mangeshkar is Lata Mangeshkar. Nobody can ever touch her.
It's unbelievable that I'm working in the same industry as Mr. Amitabh Bachchan and working with Mr. Dharmendra.
When an actor sings a song, he will be able to bring forth the emotion in it much better than a playback singer.
I wanted to try everything. I learnt a lot from playback singing. But at heart, I'm a pop rock singer; I'm a stage performer.
I had trained in Hindustani classical singing and my mother thought I could become a playback singer, but I always wanted to become an actor.
There is a conception about me that I am a playback singer and I sing for albums or for films only, but my roots are in bhajans. Even when I was in school, I used to win competitions for ghazals and bhajans.
I think a lot of musicians play for the playback. I mean, that's the joy of recording - you want to hear what you've done and what you've contributed - but never listening to that playback kind of removes the intellectual part of making music, and it removes the tendency to be revisionist.
It's very challenging to be a playback singer in Bollywood.
I have always admired Mr. Naseeruddin Shah, Mr. Anupam Kher, the late Om Puri ji, and Amitabh Bachchan.
I am happy being a playback singer and performer.
I want to be a playback singer and make my name big.
I prefer to have playback, but sometimes, you can't have that under most circumstances. First, it is expensive because you need a playback operator and secondly, it threatens a lot of directors. I only watch my performance. I see what is necessary for me so that I can see it right at the moment and I can fix it. That appeals to me a great deal.
For me 'Satyagraha' is a big film as I am working with Amitabh Bachchan. It is a big opportunity.
Apart from being a playback singer for films, I'm also an independent musician.
I am huge fan of Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Mohammad Rafi, Ghulam Ali and Mehdi Hassan. Listening to these people inspired me to become a singer.
