Playback singer Kumar Sanu recently visited Indian Army and Border Security Force (BSF) personnel in the Baramulla region of Jammu and Kashmir, where he was seen enthusiastically chanting “Bharat Mata Ki Jai”.
The singer shared a video and other photographs from his visit on social media, expressing gratitude to the security personnel for guarding the country’s borders and ensuring the safety of citizens.
“Fearless Forty One The Indian Army camp and adjoining Border Security Force (BSF) camp in Baramulla, Jammu and Kashmir. Salute to our brave soldiers! Apko Koti koti naman (Folded hand emojis) Hamare soldiers ki wajah se hi ham sab surakshit hai. (sic),” he captioned the post.
Meanwhile, in a recent conversation with IANS, Kumar Sanu spoke about establishing his own identity as a singer and moving beyond the influence of legendary playback singer Kishore Kumar.
He said his early songs carried a touch of Kishore Kumar’s singing style, prompting some listeners to describe him as a copy or clone of the legendary singer. Sanu said he took the criticism positively and made efforts to develop a distinctive style, particularly with the 1990 film ‘Aashiqui’.
“I tried a lot to separate myself from Kishore Da with ‘Aashiqui’. Before that, I was dubbing all the songs of Kishore Da as I was doing their cover versions. I thought if I follow the footsteps of Kishore Da, then I can only go to a limit. I had to achieve something of my own to go beyond the boundaries,” he told IANS.
Sanu further observed that legendary singers often begin by following their idols before eventually developing an identity of their own.
