If you strive for excellence, success will follow

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.

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.

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

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

If you are a person that is willing to fulfill your reputation becoming famous, you should feel optimistic about your goals.

I would love to have a long and serious conversation with the Pope. And Woody Allen, whom I have never interviewed. Then, after those two? Steve Jobs.

Live events and lectures in front of large audiences. It is the best. I like it more than eating dinner.

People don't realize that now is all there ever is; there is no past or future except as memory or anticipation in your mind.

Folks call me Ellis. I run an auto shop with a couple of my buddies. We're also in a band. I play bass.

I liked 'Diff'rent Strokes' up until about the last three or four years. I was bored.

The activity of being a husband, a father - those are roles, too, but underneath them is the spiritual center that connects us all, and that's what's most important.

Figure skating is theatrical. It's artistic. It's elegant. It's extremely athletic. And there's a very specific audience for that.

Spring, summer, and fall fill us with hope; winter alone reminds us of the human condition.

...And i can't get you out of my mind, God knows how hard I've tried.
