He also addressed his crossover between music and acting.
He gets intimate discussing his album, the challenges he’s faced in his personal and professional life, and what drives him creatively.
He comes across as someone deeply compassionate when talking about his father’s decisions on his citizenship and pro-Modi stance.
He comes with an understanding of why his father must have acted this way, saying that as an artist he is quite sensitive and the fact that he was heart-broken led him to these actions.
However, he does not personally support or intends to defend it as he feels he is not in the right place to say something about it.
