The singer-guitarist who performed at the Stanes Alumni function in Chennai recently, says he has a long way to go as a singer and was proud to be nominated alongside the legendary SPB The man may have played in over 200 countries across the country and abroad as a bass guitarist, and also made his mark as a singer, but admits to being rather surprised to have tasted so much success rather soon.
"I didn't expect Enamo Aedho to be such a big hit, and was honoured to be nominated alongside a legend like SPB sir, who is in a league of his own," Aalaap Raju says. Though he lost out to SPB and Ennamo Aedho was voted song of the year instead, Aalaap admits he is still letting the success sink in.
"I still have a long way to go as a singer, and it is great to be working with such talented music directors and singers at this stage of my career," he adds, excited. The singer also loves studying the history of musical instruments and going on long drives during his spare time. "Music is pretty much my all-consuming passion, apart from long drives, which I have yet to go on. I would love to drive down to Goa very soon," he signs off.
