As someone who worships music, I believe it can never be ugly!

To me,music is oxygen & I know that someday even if I can’t sing,I can always continue listening to it.

I learnt to sing in Bengali, my mother tongue, then went on to sing in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati and every possible Indian language.

I have to say that my biggest Award is performing in front of my fans. Their love is my award.

If you strive for excellence, success will follow

I like my father being the boss in my life

Titles or awards are not the mark of your success. They are the beginning of a life-long sadhana.

I actually have a lot of couples coming & telling me that one of my songs was instrumental in strengthening their romance.

There is a very big forgiving side in me that keeps me very light in my heart and happy.

I truly get very emotional when I am performing and see their (Fans) love for me.

I can say this much with confidence - that I now have a sound of my own

Courage. Kindness. Friendship. Character. These are the qualities that define us as human beings, and propel us, on occasion, to greatness.

Writers, like teeth, are divided into incisors and grinders.

If you want to be listened to you should put in time listening.

I have lived long enough to know that the evening glow of love has its own riches and splendour.

We should realize that our deadliest enemies are anger and other delusions. Since these delusions are deeply ingrained mental habits, working to overcome them is not always easy.

there's something nice about knowing that i'm not the only one who doesn't quite fit the part.

Relativity propped it up, at least gave it the illusion of being there…the way all reality becomes illusory and observer-oriented when you study general relativity. Or Buddhism. Or get drafted.

The other thing I knew I had was a high level of competitiveness.

There are rhythms in the world waiting for words to be written to them.

My whole thing is being sexy without showing too much, because thats my comfort level.
