This is my rebirth: Qazi Tauqeer

Famed Gurukul winner Qazi Tauqeer was discharged from Bombay Hospital last week after a severe neck injury. The singer cum actor is now taking a week's rest. We spoke to Qazi for the latest update.

"I'm fine but I still go for regular check ups. I was in the I.C.U so I had never imagined that I will get well soon but there is still a minor pain in my neck which doctors say will disappear in about a week's time. I have been saved because of the blessings of Allah and the prayers of all my loved ones. In two days time my neck collar will also be removed. After that my mom and I are planning to go Haji Ali and Mahim darga. This is like a rebirth for me," says a relieved Qazi.

Enquired about those who came to meet him in the hospital, he reveals, "All my relatives who are there in Mumbai and also Rex D' Souza who was there with me in Fame Gurukul. I was pleased to see him."

On the work front, he says, "My first film Take Off is ready to release but there was only the one title track which was remaining. Unfortunately, during the rehearsals I got injured while doing a somersault. I will start again in two weeks."

Take off is romantic thriller in which the majority of the songs have been sung by Qazi. He had injured his neck while rehearsing a song at Ganesh Acharya's Studio last month. His condition became very critical following which he was admitted to the Bombay Hospital.
