00:00I never thought that something like this would happen.
00:10I was so thrilled that I could do a song with a legendary Usha ji.
00:15When I made the song, initially there was no plan of collaborating with anyone.
00:22But as the song was being made, I felt that this deserves something special
00:28because the song was very beautiful.
00:30I sent it to Usha ji, immediately, magically, she agreed.
00:35And in the next 3 days, we made the video and finished it.
00:39And the next week, we also released the song.
00:42So I feel that sometimes, things just happen magically.
00:47And Usha ji was so kind and so giving and so...
00:54She blessed us a lot.
00:56And I feel that this is going to be a song for lifetimes.
01:00This one is called Gole Male.
01:07I always try to bring folk music back in a new form.
01:18So whenever I am recreating a song,
01:22I don't take an old song and add new music to it.
01:29I don't do a new interpretation of that song,
01:33either lyrically, visually or musically.
01:37So this is what I try to do, whenever I do a new song.
01:49No, I think familiarity is a beautiful thing.
01:52If you already know something about something,
01:55if you have heard something before,
01:57then it is only right that you remember it first.
02:00And you will probably look forward to it.
02:02But yes, if the whole color of the song has been changed,
02:08in a way that it is not respectful,
02:11then many people may have a problem with it.
02:19Well, if somebody can sing without autotune,
02:23it's amazing, they should.
02:25But since technology...
02:27What can we say about autotune,
02:29when AI has come and is also singing in people's voice.
02:32So, yeah, I mean, technology is great,
02:36but it's also bad if you overuse it.
02:41Of course, machines cannot sing like human beings.
02:45And even if they do,
02:47who is going to go and sing those songs on stage
02:50when live audiences want you to?
02:57No, I mean, if it's a balance of both,
03:00that can also be done.
03:01Recreations can also be a great balance of art and skill.
03:06Recreations can also be a great balance of art and skill
03:10and creativity and familiarity.
03:14So it can be a bit of all.
03:16We can't talk about just one particular recreation.
03:21But if a recreation is being done,
03:23then it can also be done in this way.
03:25That you don't have to just modernize it,
03:28stick a groove and put a rap in it,
03:31and the song is ready.
03:33You know, not necessary.
03:37Unfortunately or fortunately, majority, yes.
03:41Because independent artists will never have the kind of money
03:45to compete with Bollywood.
03:47And if you keep promoting yourself,
03:50you keep promoting yourself,
03:51everything requires money.
03:53So if you give Bollywood funds to independent artists,
03:59then it can be a matter of competition.
04:02Now there are many ways to see this.
04:05It has happened to me many times
04:07that I have also tried this song many times
04:09and eventually that song has not been released in my voice.
04:12It makes me only learn
04:14that what would have happened
04:16that they did not use my voice.
04:19Or if my voice was used in this song,
04:22then what did I do?
04:24I did not use my voice.
04:26I did not use my voice.
04:28Or if my voice was used in this song,
04:30then what did I do?
04:32It makes me learn.
04:34Its second point is that
04:36either you get discouraged and sit
04:38that my voice was not used.
04:40I did not want to use my voice.
04:42This can also be a way of life.
04:44But then it's all about attitude in life.
04:46Either you go ahead crying, crying, crying.
04:48Idea is to keep going ahead.
04:55I think they are driven by algorithms.
04:59I think I am going to be killed for all of this.
05:02I think they are driven by algorithms.
05:04But artists need to just focus on art.
05:08Because if we start thinking behind algorithms,
05:11then we will not be artists.
05:13We know how to make our own music.
05:15We should focus on creativity.
05:17If we focus on that,
05:19good music will be made.
05:21And it will automatically become a part of the algorithms.
