I don't feel comfortable with the kind of celebrity that has come my way - and I'm not very good at it, either.
Some people don't even say hello. They come up and say, 'Can I take your picture?' and I'm, like, 'Why?' And they say, 'Oh, you're that guy.' And I'm, like, 'Why do you want a photo of me if you don't even know my name?'
I don't want to be a celebrity. I don't want to be in people's faces, you know, constantly on covers of magazine that I haven't even known I'm on.
More than anything else, being famous just didn't agree with me.
I am not comfortable at all with this tag of being dubbed 'the richest Indian' and all the attention that follows for the reason.
I've gotten more press than any entrepreneur could dream of - certainly more than I deserve - and I've never had a public relations firm working for me.
I'm not a big fan of the thought that you can become a star by winning a contest. I'm sort of old-fashioned. I think people need to get out there and they need to work and they need to do their music because they love it. If they become successful, then great, and if they are not, whatever.
I never try to get noticed. It just happens. I never try.
I literally was famous before I knew my own name.
I'm constantly complimented for my voice, even by random people at the airport!
