Above all, never lose your faith in the destiny of India. There is no power on earth which can keep India in bondage. India will be free and, that too, soon. JAl-HIND !
India is developing because of 125 crore strong Team India. We have to end the curse of casteism, communalism with the sweetness of development.
'Make in India' is great, but 'Make It Happen in India' is even greater. Make It Happen in India is more than manufacturing. It's about training, about education, about societal development and automation and engineering.

When I wrote 'Monsoon,' I always imagined the music video being shot in India.

The reality that we were growing up in was very young and vibrant, and nobody was capturing that part of India. I started to backpack after getting out of college.

I want to cement my own legacy and, most importantly, motivate the youth of India and make all of India proud.
