When I was in school, I would participate in almost every possible competition. I also went on to represent my school and college.
I played volleyball and basketball and would also take part in dramatics.
Having studied in a girls school, I was always surrounded by women, all of who were strong-willed and came from army backgrounds, that played a very important role in my life.
Nothing happens overnight for anyone. To become a skilled, accomplished artiste, you need time to work on yourself first.
You have to be gifted to begin with, of course, but what follows is a process that takes a very long time. You train, you listen, you travel, you follow artistes... all of it goes into making you who you are as a performing artiste.
When I was a child, the idea of coming to Mumbai and becoming a singer was a far-fetched one.
I still believe that the voice as well as the body express a song together - that's my philosophy of performing a song.
I quite often listen to Internet radio; especially the RnB section if I am jumpy.
I used to love Govinda songs and now I am embarrassed about it. I don't understand why thought because even now people dance to his music. I think they are still fun.
Be it while recording a song or singing to a live audience, I still get nervous. I feel that is very important. This is what makes me perform well.
People in the music industry are very professional and helpful. I really felt encouraged at every point because I met good people and got inspiration from them.
I'm glad I've been offered songs from various genres, but I love singing melodies the most.
Knee-length dresses are a fetish. They can be in different materials or lengths, but they work just right for me.
I travel a lot. So my clothes are from all over the world. I pick up something from every place I visit.
Europe's sense of fashion is too high-end and posh for my liking.
I had always wanted to write a song on my mother and also mothers generally.
I want to celebrate and salute motherhood.
My problem starts when I see that in a situation when the girl is telling her feeling, say crying or laughing, the song is sung by a male singer. Why?
