The Kabira (Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani) hitmaker, Arijit Singh, will perform in Mumbai on March 24 at the MTV India tour. The singer talks about his first India tour, singing out of his comfort zone and more.
This is my first-ever India tour. It is one of the best experiences that I have had in a long time. I will sing most of my chartbusters and it will be a three-hour long musical evening.
My goal is to be dynamic. Rendering new songs, or picking up the same genre but trying to sing it differently, helps me push myself to new tangents. I enjoy genres that bring me out of my comfort zone. For instance, Binte Dil from Padmaavat.
Nothing as of now and that’s a subjective opinion. But working solo on a music does give you the liberty to think freely. Though, there shouldn’t be any limitations in thinking creatively whether you work independently or with other musicians. Being true and passionate to your music gives you more creative freedom.
Most of my songs that I began my career with were super tough mostly because back then I used to over think a lot. Initially, I wanted to do exactly what has been asked of me by the music director. Now, I have realised that you have to go with the flow and be organic.
When you listen to a song that you connect with on a personal level, you tend to enjoy it better. Likewise, there are few songs that I relate to on a personal level. One of them is Safar from Jab Harry Met Sejal. It doesn’t make any difference in the recording studio but it’s just more enjoyable.
