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 managed to make an identity as a playback singer in the industry; I thought I'll never be able to do that.
My practice is to take a sheet, write the song number in the left side, name of the production, and time of recording. Only when I have to fill the name of the singer do we look out to see who is free. When the singers we want aren't there, I end up singing it! That's how I became a singer.
It's very challenging to be a playback singer in Bollywood.
I was trying to make my name just Artist in the beginning, but it was weird at first, because I wasn't an R&B singer or nothing. Not an R&B singer. I didn't do no melodic songs, none of that yet.
I have a long way to go as far as my acting career is concerned. Lots of milestones are to be achieved and dreams to be fulfilled. I would someday want to do playback singing, too, as I am a very passionate singer.
I am happy being a playback singer and performer.
Apart from being a playback singer for films, I'm also an independent musician.
I love doing my music videos. I have grown up loving independent music and I am more of a performer than a playback singer and hence I want that if it's my voice, then it should be my face too.
At the end of the day, a playback singer has to depend on live shows as their source of income.
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.
When Mohammed Rafi was not an active playback singer, Kishore Kumar dominated the scene and vice-versa.
I want to stay active and busy. I don't just want to fight a no-name opponent. I want a decent name or a big name or a world champion, somebody who is going to challenge me. That's just it.
When an actor sings a song, he will be able to bring forth the emotion in it much better than a playback singer.
I always enjoyed singing and working with the late Kishore Kumar. He was a legendary playback singer, an actor, and a producer/director.
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.
