00:00Since I was 4 years old, I have been singing non-stop.
00:06It's a non-stop program of 1.5-2 hours.
00:09Your average is more than Sehwag and Sachin.
00:30You know, you are also an artist.
00:32There are days when you don't feel like singing.
00:35Yet, you have to perform for the public.
00:37How do you keep the zeal going?
00:39Actually, singing only keeps me going.
00:44My passion has always been singing.
00:47I had to study.
00:50Since I was 4 years old, I have been singing non-stop.
00:56There is an insane number I have heard
00:58that you sing more than 100 songs in every season.
01:01I have heard this from you and your team.
01:03How many songs do you practice?
01:06We practice at least 40 songs in one show.
01:09It's a non-stop program of 1.5-2 hours.
01:13Your average is more than Sehwag and Sachin.
01:15You have performed more than 400-500 songs in 10 days.
01:18This is great.
01:19Has it happened that you have forgotten the lyrics?
01:23No, it hasn't happened yet.
01:26You can say it here.
01:28No, it hasn't happened yet.
01:30What has been, if I may use the word,
01:33the most embarrassing moment on stage?
01:35Many artists come here and say
01:37that they have slipped while performing live.
01:40Has it ever happened to you?
01:42No, it hasn't happened to me.
01:44Thank God.
01:45Has it happened to any other artist?
01:47You laughed but you still had to sing.
01:49I had done a special entry in Pariyu.
01:51There was a half-moon on top of a crane.
01:54It was white in colour.
01:56There were two fairies standing next to it.
01:59I was already scared to enter the crane.
02:03I was scared of heights.
02:05I had told them not to do it.
02:07But they convinced me to do it.
02:09It was a great song.
02:11I accepted it.
02:13I took God's name and sat on it.
02:15As I was getting down,
02:17I was singing Pariyu.
02:20As I came halfway,
02:22my face turned from one side to the other.
02:26I was so scared.
02:28I started sweating.
02:30I was so scared.
02:34Luckily, nothing happened.
02:36I came down slowly.
02:38My fans told me not to do it again.
02:43When is the last time you enjoyed doing Garba and Dandiya?
02:48I want to do it for myself.
02:50I want to have a good time.
02:52Does it ever happen with you?
02:54Not since I started singing on stage.
02:56I just enjoy watching people dance to our music.
03:01There can't be a happier thing than that.
03:04They enjoy our music.
03:06They like the rhythm we introduce.
03:10That's the happiest moment.
03:12I sleep so peacefully at home.
03:15Can you sing a few lines or a medley of your favorite songs?
