00:00So, thank you very much. Welcome to INS.

00:02And since you were wondering, how do you think of the idea of writing to the world?

00:08Who rules the world? Of course, it was a production company, British Nandi Productions, The Royals.

00:16It was a big show and it was a very clear idea that it was a song that they wanted to sing.

00:21So, it came from their side and we formulated it slowly with the help of my music director and co-writer, Arshipadhyay.

00:30You have made a song for the show for the show.

00:33Yes.

00:34Do you have any question from him?

00:36No, I have no question.

00:38But I have received a lot of feedback from Arshipadhyay.

00:42Because obviously, how will the projection of his songs happen to him, he has a lot of speech.

00:49So, sometimes he has a lot of speech through and through, but he has never done directly.

00:56Now, how are you doing Netflix from there?

00:59I am from Kanpur, but beyond Kanpur, I feel like there are a lot of people in my entire India.

01:09I feel like I am a son of the entire India.

01:15I feel like my experience and knowledge about different regions, different areas, different cultures,

01:27and I feel like I am a better artist.

01:32I came from Kanpur to Mumbai and started to work slowly and slowly.

01:39I am here, I don't know how it happened.

01:43How do you feel like a song and how do you feel your passion?

01:48It was a lot of passion and inspiration.

01:53Because I was doing a film with my music director with Harsh Upadhyay,

01:57just before that, which came from March 14.

02:00It's a film called Be Happy, which is on Amazon Prime.

02:02There are five songs in it.

02:04There is a very big song called Sultana,

02:07which is Nora Fatehi, Sunidhi Ma'am, and Mika Zing.

02:12There is a rap section in it.

02:15The first time that I started to write a rap style,

02:19I started to write a rap style for me.

02:24It worked very well for me.

02:26And I realized that I can write a good song.

02:29Because I have written a lot of music in English before,

02:32but I wrote a rap style.

02:34So this worked for me.

02:35So that's it.

02:36I felt very strong.

02:37Yes.

02:38I was doing a lot of music in English with Shubhan.

02:39Your character was strong.

02:40What are you doing with your career?

02:41Yes.

02:42Hopefully.

02:43Because we work together with many projects,

02:45I have worked with them just for two years.

02:47I have worked with them for two years.

02:49I had written ads with them with them.

02:51They did a lot of work with them,

02:54and they worked with them.

02:55They worked with me.

02:56And at a large level,

02:57I was lucky that they wanted to work with me.

03:00and I also feel that they will do well and I also feel that they will be good with me and I also feel that they will be good with me.

03:09Do you like both Indian and Western Classes? Yes.

03:15I don't think so much about the style. I feel that when I learned Indian and after that I learned Western,

03:22I realized that there are seven notes and all the skills are transferable.

03:28So, I feel that I have developed my own style and I feel that every singer will take things to the table,

03:37whether he is working in any style.

03:40Do you feel like your own line rules, the world is lower, feminist and overkill?

03:45Yes.

03:47I don't have clarity about why they feel overkill.

03:51But I can give a perspective about who rules the world.

03:56We talk about the two protagonists,

04:00both are trying to get their own position.

04:04So, this line comes from both sides of the world,

04:08not only one female or male perspective.

04:11Do you talk about female empowerment,

04:14but in Bollywood, do you feel like a gender bias?

04:18No, personally, I don't feel this.

04:21Because I think this is just a start for me.

04:24So, I am very lucky that I don't feel this kind of bias.

04:29I am sure that those who feel it,

04:32I have a lot of sympathy for them.

04:35And I don't need to do this.

04:38But I need to present all women to all of them positively and confidently.

04:42I need to present all of them.

04:43So, in social media, people say that

04:46the change of the change of the change of the change of the change of the change.

04:49Yes.

04:50What do you think about the change of the change?

04:52I think that if you feel good,

04:58that's why it's going to be good.

05:00If I do a depth,

05:03there are some deep songs.

05:05Like, you remember the song,

05:07the song,

05:08Eh Ham Nawa,

05:09Eh Ham Nawa,

05:10Eh Ham Nawa,

05:11Mujhe Apna Bana Le.

05:13What a good song!

05:15So,

05:17I think that the song is the same.

05:19I think that the song is the same.

05:21I feel like the song is the same.

05:24I feel like the song is the same.

05:26The song is the same.

05:27The song is the same.

05:28What do you think about the song just for the idol songs?

05:35No, I don't think that.

05:37So,

05:38I think that sometimes,

05:40there are some male-centric films in films.

05:42Like, Hero Man,

05:44I think that the song is the same.

05:45So, there are some male-centric songs.

05:47There are some male-centric songs.

05:48But, like, I'm talking about the film of Mardani.

05:50Or, there are some other films

05:51that are female-protagonist top.

05:53So, there are some female-centric songs.

05:56I don't think that.

05:57In the industry,

05:58there was a singer in the industry.

06:00Have you ever given credit?

06:05No, no, no.

06:07It has never happened.

06:09I am very lucky on that front.

06:11I feel like I am hiding something.

06:16But,

06:17there is nothing.

06:18I am very lucky to be around very good people.

06:21I feel like you are good.

06:23So, there are some good things with you.

06:25And, I am very lucky that

06:27there is bias or something wrong with me.

06:30It is not.

06:31I am very lucky.

06:32Just a little rapid-file.

06:33Yes.

06:34Do you want to do Noura or Noura?

06:35Do you want to do Noura or Noura?

06:36Do you want to do Noura or Noura?

06:37Oh!

06:38Technically, I have two songs with Noura.

06:40That is,

06:41one of the songs with Noura.

06:42That is,

06:43one of the songs with Noura.

06:44And,

06:45the title track is also in Noura's entry.

06:48In the series,

06:49the Royals.

06:50So,

06:51Do you want to do Noura?

06:53Do you want to collaborate with Noura or Noura?

06:57I would love to collaborate with Nina Simone.

07:00Nina Simone is a chaz artist.

07:02She is no more.

07:03She died in 2003.

07:04But,

07:05she is my favourite.

07:06Do you want to choose a song right now?

07:09Singing.

07:10Singing.

07:11Do you want an overrated song according to you?

07:14Overrated?

07:19They're Not Like Us.

07:20It's a song right now.

07:21It's a song right now.

07:22It's a song right now.

07:23But,

07:24I don't like it.

07:25I don't like it.

07:26In Mumbai's stage,

07:27what feels more like Mumbai?

07:28Mumbai's stage.

07:29Most used emoji.

07:31Fire emoji.

07:33And,

07:34one secret challenge of that

07:36I don't know anyone.

07:37I used to love doing that.

07:38I used to love doing that.

07:39So,

07:40it kind of helps me with,

07:41you know,

07:42my vocal textures now.

07:43So,

07:44I used to love doing that.

07:45I used to love doing that.

07:46So,

07:47it kind of helps me

07:48with,

07:49you know,

07:50my vocal textures now.

07:51Now,

07:52like in this song,

07:53I used to say,

07:54Mammy, Mammy, Mammy,

07:55don't you cry.

07:56I changed my voice a little bit.

07:58And,

07:59in some songs,

08:00there are so many layers.

08:02So,

08:03all of my songs are mine.

08:04And,

08:05people feel like

08:06there are many people here.

08:07So,

08:08yeah.

08:09musicians,

08:10like in this song,

08:12all of my songs,

08:13there are many people here.

08:14Yes,

08:15all of my songs are great.

08:16Yes,

08:17you're almost ever rapping here.

08:18You're always rapping here.

08:19You're racking your voice.

08:20Of course.

08:21Yes.

08:22So,

08:23what's your inspiration for me?

08:24Raja Kumari,

08:25I very like you really good.

08:27As an artist.

08:28inspiration

08:30I wasn't really buying it.

08:31I never want to rap

08:33because I didn't like rap.

08:34so,

08:35I will always write it.

08:37It's already done.

08:39I don't understand the question about competition.

08:41There are so many singers.

08:45There are so many pop singles.

08:49Everyone is running their own home.

08:53Everyone is doing their own work.

08:55Yes.

08:57What do you think about singing?

09:07I feel like you can see the reflection of the real life.

09:13I feel like the songs that you have made today,

09:19they are playing.

09:21Why are they playing?

09:23They are playing because they are liking it.

09:25They are both roles.

09:27I feel like as artists,

09:29we are trying to put a depth on the table.

09:31My friends are also trying to put a better thing on the table.

09:37They are liking everyone.

09:39So, they are going to pursue them more.

09:41Do you think,

09:43if you are doing this today,

09:45you are getting into social media?

09:47Do you think you are getting into social media?

09:49I feel like that.

09:51No, I don't agree with this.

09:53Because I feel like there are many songs.

09:57People just listen in social media.

09:59People have a lot less time to listen to the people today,

10:03like they are listening to the songs.

10:05They are often listening to the radio,

10:08when they are going to the office,

10:10they are listening to the cars.

10:11Or, they are listening to the songs.

10:13There are many people who are listening to the music.

10:15And often they are scrolling to the music.

10:17So, as a musician, our goal is to reach our songs until we reach our songs.

10:22So, we promote them in social media.

10:26What would you like to give your fans?

10:30I would like to tell my fans that I am working a lot.

10:34I am working on my work.

10:37You just need support.

10:39You are giving me a lot of love.

10:42And I will be proud of you.
