He finds it hard to believe that his debut song has been honoured at the national level. He reminisces, "I'm awestruck. I never thought the song would make its way to the top. When Rahman sir came in to give his judgement for the contest. He said that there is good news and bad news. He told me, I'm out of the competition. After some time he came up to me and offered me to sing for Rang De Basanti. At that moment, I didn't know whether to feel happy or otherwise. Mr Rahman and I were quite passionate about this number but had never thought it would become an anthem." He owes his success to A R Rahman and Prasoon Joshi. Ever since there has been no looking back for the singer and he has flooded with offers from Bollywood and the South movies. He is now a regular in Rahman's group and has also delivered few hits in the south. Achievement is not far away from him. He will receive the Rajat Kamal and a cash prize of Rs 10,000 from the President of India in New Delhi soon. He asserts, "Winning talent hunts is not everything. If you have it in you, you are bound to succeed. I still have a long way to go but the National Award has certainly boosted my confidence." Naresh Iyer will soon render for Hansal Mehta's Woodstock Villa and is also working with Rahman on his next Hindi film. seeing his confidence we can see more Roobaru's coming! |
