“I want to bring Sufiness in my music.”

“To be honest, I have created more originals than remixes. But when producers call me for recreations, it means they trust me with my work. And recreations come with a lot of expectations and responsibilities.”

“My music is my way of reaching out to the world and I am glad that through the right projects I am able to do that.”

“Everyone has ups and downs, but if I allow myself to be affected by 'Masakali,' then I'd never be able to work again.”

“While doing remixes, I get to know about a lot of musical notes that the legendary musicians have used earlier. Then I apply those learnings to my original compositions, so it helps.”

“I am very powerful in the quirk genre. I have a very strong hold in folk and quirky songs that ranges from, 'Banno tera swagger' from 'Tanu Weds Manu Returns' to 'Bolna' from 'Kapoor & Sons.'”

“Music is beyond competition and politics.”

“India is a multicultural nation.”

“I love ballads by Brian Anderson and pop/rock by Richard Marx.”

“Actually, I am helping everybody by doing remixes. It is also like a cause for me because I think artists who are not doing much and are very talented should come up. So that's a good thing.”

“Recreations are not a trend that I started; In the 90s and 2000s we used to have remakes/remixes where the tracks were also accompanied with videos.”

“Farzi' is a crime thriller, so I wanted to make a track that represents the theme of the show.”

“My work is my main passion and I do not focus on what everyone is saying.”

“Recreating a song is as good as constructing a new building.”

“It's important to be social. However, I prefer keeping my focus on my work.”

“My aim is to reconnect the youth with music that's lost to them.”

“I am very particular about voices, and I will not stop till I find a perfect voice for a song I have created. So, big names and reputations don't bother me.”

“Taare' will bring a smile to your face when you play it, as it's a very soothing and calming song.”

“In my songs I make it a point that the original singers get the credit and royalty. Like with 'Jehda Nasha,' we ensured that the original singers get to sing it.”

“What I basically do, is create a rough version of the song, and send it to the director for his approval. If they like it then I get into the process of mixing and mastering it. If they don't, then I create another version, and run that by them.”
