Udit was kissed at 16, Aditya at 19!
Singer Udit Narayan was just 16 when he was kissed for the first time by a fan while son Aditya experienced it at 19 when a female fan planted a kiss on his cheek while he was hosting the singing competition Sa Re Ga Ma Pa.
Having enjoyed the adulation himself, Udit isn't too perturbed about the unbridled attention his son is getting. As an artist, he feels it's a part of glamour world. "It's a new generation where hugging and kissing is a very normal expression of love and warmth. Moreover, Aditya has been brought up in a very cultured manner. I have full faith in him and he knows his limits."
Recollecting his own experiences, Udit says, "I was only 16 when I was kissed by a fan. I was also very good looking in my teens so wherever I used to go, I was given compliments and people used to get attracted towards me when they saw me singing. But we are from a very reserved family so I was very shy and always tried to avoid them."
"My wife Deepali was the first person I hugged without hesitating," the singer blushes.
Like every father, Udit also feels that his son should be more successful than him. "I am happy that he is doing much better than what I was when I was of his age. His future is very bright."
Aditya delivered his first hit with the song chhota bacha janke humko na samjhana re in Masoom and went on to sing many other songs which were appreciated. At present, he is hosting Zee Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Challenge 2007.
What plans does Udit have for his son? "Aditya has full freedom to build his career the way he wants."
"I am always there to guide him," says the reassuring father.
