Q: Do you feel that the present day music is better than the olden days’ music, equivalent to them or worse?
A: Oh, please! The present day music is much better than the music of the past. I simply don’t understand why people describe the olden days as golden days. Friends, first listen to the music composes by Shankar-Ehsan-Loy and Preetam and then come to a decision. These people are not only composing beautiful music, but also singing equally well. I personally don’t like any songs from the olden days or the so-called golden period.-(SAMPURN)
