But I feel honoured to be part of your journey. I’m looking forward to the day when you all will turn real-life journalists and interview me for a newspaper/channel,” said Sukhwinder, who responded to over 15 questions by the students.
The singer spoke about his favourite composer AR Rahman, what inspired him to get into music and the #MeToo campaign, among other things. Talking about the campaign, he praised women who have spoken up against the perpetrators. “It’s shameful that you force somebody in exchange of giving them work. I am shocked with the names that have come out, and completely empathise with the ladies who have spoken up against the guilty. It’s important to tell such stories. We call our country
Bharat Mata
and treat women like this. It’s upsetting,” said Sukhwinder, who also jammed with the students. He sang songs like
Haule Haule
,
Jai Ho
,
Chaiyya Chaiyya
and
Ramta Jogi
