<\/p>\nIts over thinks Arijit singh the singer. For someone who’s arguably Bollywood’s No. 1 voice, Arijit Singh sounds uncannily insecure about his place in showbiz. “I don’t think I have a long way to go. This might be my last year,” says the 29-year-old, alluding to the short shelf life of Bollywood’s artistes.<\/p>\n
“Normally, fresh voices replace (current favourites) every five to seven years in Bollywood.” Before the Phir Le Aya Dil singer can be prodded further, Singh offers a solution. “I might be able to change that,” he says, adding, “If I work really hard on specific genres, I might be able to stay longer. That way, I can emerge as the only singer who can croon songs of those genres. Maybe that’s how I will survive.”<\/p>\n

Singh has honed such survival skills over the years. Despite emerging as a strong contender in 2005’s popular reality singing show, Fame Gurukul, his tryst with fame was preceded by a string of obstacles.<\/p>\n
He struggled to break into the industry as a playback singer, and had to assist composers Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy and Pritam for six years before he bagged his first song from Murder 2, Phir Mohabbat (2011).<\/p>\n
Ever since, Singh, who will be part of the starry line-up at multi-genre music festival Enchanted Valley Carnival on December 17 and 18, has charted his own path to success. He is one of the most sought-after voices in the industry today.<\/p>\n

Even though he is an idol for aspiring singers, Arijit says he has a long way to go. “I want to be more informed about music technology in the coming years,” he says.<\/p>\n
Singh often keeps an arm’s distance from the media. And, why’s that? “I enjoy a quiet life, without much interruption. Over the past three years, I have seen my fan base grow, and I think it’s essential for them to know that I’ve always been someone who refrains from interactions because I enjoy a silent life. With the growth of social media, this, too, becomes difficult,” he says.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
