As a singer, you have to bring the soul to the song.

In my opinion, the biggest achievement was by Shankar-Jaikishan. With Raj Kapoor's 'Barsaat,' they changed the way we looked at playback singing.

One has to be fully committed to one's career. Otherwise, there's no point.

I believe in one power, and that is the hand of God. I respect all religions.

I feel God has sent me to Earth to sing. I started singing when I was five, but I don't think I've worked as hard as many other people.

I have decided that I won't take up assignments that don't interest me.
