Oh, since I was in a cradle! My mom says, I wouldn't cry as a baby I would go `la la la la.' It was a usual practice among my family members to my bottle of milk away to hear me sing. How early in your life did you get into music? The best par was that I won the first prize because people were impressed by my ability to grasp another lan guage so quickly. I stil remember each line and can recite it from heart. my neighbour aunty in Delhi taught me that for a competition in our colony. Oh yes, right from my childhood.In fact, I can even recite Bengali nursery rhymes. You seem to have been around Bongs a lot.
In fact, even now, I have so many Bong friends in the industry that it is usual for me to enjoy a Bengali lunch or dinner at least once a week. Maach bhaat, kosha mangsho, chingri maach'er malaikari, begun bhaja, dimer jhol, ghee bhaat with salt.These are not exotic to me. I grew up having Bong food, because, as a kid in Delhi, we had a Bengali neighbour. I loved them! But I have always been very familiar with Bengali food.
But yes, I had biryani and rasgullas! That too, at 2 in the morning, when I reached my hotel after the performance.
We got on stage around 11.And yet, there were so many people waiting for us and the cheer was so loud! I absolutely loved it.ĭid you get time to go sightseeing in the city? It was amazing! I came down from an equally great show in Jalpaiguri and we started late in BESU.
