I will be singing Bharat Humko Jaanse Pyara Hai and I Love My India.
To name one ghazal is difficult. However, Kaash Aisa Koi Manzar Hota is a favourite. It has beautiful and simple poetry and the music is also very soothing.
I am Ustad Ghulam Mustafa Khan's shagirdh (student). He taught me his compositions. I was also inspired by Ustad Mehdi Hassan Sahab.
Over the years, what changes have you seen in Bollwood music?
I have been singing in Bollywood since 1977. Until the end of 1980, the style and sound were the same. But the '90s saw a dramatic change in sound and composition, leading to music productions and programming. The songs are more dance and hip hop oriented now. Musical styles change with trends. It changes according to the films being made. As long as it adds to the script and the film, it's good.
We do keep doing shows. The kind of fusion we created is still being followed by Bollywood and there are lots of artists and bands who follow this style.
Classical music is meditative while Bollywood music wakes you up!
I am doing two ghazal albums. One is a live recording with me doing Mehdi Hassan's songs and an album with the great poet Farhad Shehzad.
Food and some shopping for sure.
