The music is by Anu Malik and this is the first time I''m working with him. The other film is a Boney Kapur production. Then I''ve done live shows with Sonu Nigam all over India and in various parts of the world. We were in South Africa a week ago and will be going to the Gulf soon. I like singing live though it is quite demanding and strenuous.<br /><br /><span style="" font-weight:="" bold="">What do you think of Hindi remix music?</span><br /><br />It is not my place to criticise it. If a particular number works well with the public then it must be good. A lot of people earn their bread and butter because of this whole remixing business. Personally, I love dancing to remixed Hindi numbers as you can relate to them. The younger generation might forget Hindi so remixes are a way of introducing them to an Indian language. <br /><br /><span style="" font-weight:="" bold="">Who is your favourite composer/director?</span><br /><br />That''s a tough one and I''ve got to be diplomatic, not to mention that I have not worked with all the directors. Each experience is a unique one even if it may not be a good one.<br /><br /><span style="" font-weight:="" bold="">Being a Kannadiga and a Bangalorean did you have any problems with your accent when you shifted to Mumbai?</span><br /><br />I moved three years ago and have never had an issue with my Hindi. In fact, now I am learning Urdu and can even read a bit.<br /></div> </div>
