What Sunidhi said about Arijit
Sunidhi talked about Arijit Singh and said, “He is a student. He is such a beautiful singer. Whatever the genre, I think he is able to adapt himself according to that, which is a very big quality. He does that without changing his voice, otherwise to jump into a genre, you try to tweak your vocals. A lot of people do that, I don’t think he does that a lot. He has become too big to even try something like that.”
‘He just sings, we want to hear him’
She added, “He does not love himself enough. That’s why he is able to do what he is doing. He is a student. He does not think he is Arijit Singh. He is chilled out, whatever little I have known of him. He loves to listen to other people, loves to adapt from other singers that he likes. He sings their songs onstage in his own concert. It does not have to be Lata (Mangeshkar) ji, Kishore Kumar ji, it can be a new singer’s song also. For him, he just wants to make music. He doesn’t want to be heard. He just sings, we want to hear him. You create that aura, and it reaches people. Your song is your brand.”
Arijit Singh has become the go-to singer in Bollywood, having delivered a wide range of successful songs in the last few years. Some of his songs that have become hits this year are O Sajni Re from Laapataa Ladies and Satyanaas from Chandu Champion. The singer recently postponed his upcoming string of live shows due to medical issues.
