There has been a significant surge in recreations of old songs in Bollywood for films. It has almost become mandatory for every film to have at least one of these recreated songs. While many are on board with this idea, many from the music industry are not.

What are your thoughts on remakes of old songs?
Anything, when it is overdone, is bad. Recreating a song that was released just five years ago does not make any sense. You can’t add anything fresh to it because the song is still there in people’s memory. It is fine if you take a song that is 40-50 years old. However, when you do, you just cannot play around with classic songs. They are etched in people’s memories. To make it look new, you just cannot change the entire graph of the song. You have to keep the soul of the song intact.

For someone who comes from a non-music background, you have really come a long way. How do you look back at your journey so far?
It has been a roller-coaster ride. I am glad for all that has come my way both good and bad, as even bad experiences teach you important things. My journey has not been easy at all. To be part of such a big industry without having any roots or background was daunting at first. But I always believed in myself and knew it would take time because no one was endorsing me. I was on my own and I liked it that way because when the struggle is yours, the success is yours alone too. And then you don’t take it for
