I'm not really comfortable with being on songs with cats I don't really know.
Saroj Kumar is plagued with insecurity about how he can survive in the industry, what with new, better looking actors coming up, and experimental films taking over his once popular box-office success formulas.
I'm fascinated by musicians who don't completely understand their territory; that's when you do your best work.
I think it's really important whilst you're a young actor to try as many new things as possible... to try and do something you haven't necessarily been seen doing before.
To some degree, yeah, because I have to play a certain number of originals that might be considered avant-garde material. I realize though, that only a few people in the audience actually know what that music is, or understand it.

I don't appreciate avant-garde, electronic music. It makes me feel quite ill.
People usually call me for experimental songs.
I think my music is a little shocking to some people because my voice is very traditional-sounding, and my music is not.
