Nervous?
"No. The contest is in its last leg. Whatever the outcome, I think all the singers participating are amongst the finest in the industry. And winning or losing a contest does not demean anyone..."
Do you think this competition would bring your relations with Shankar Mahadevan, Shreya, Mika, Himesh and Mohit in trouble..?
"No ways! Because one contest cannot alter our relations .Its a small world, as for Shankar, we have worked together a lot over a past few years and I can assure that we will be always friends whatever happens."
Does he have better chances to win?
"Of course! He's won some really challenging contests throughout the competition .He has got a great line-up. He devotes a lot of time to his team."
Are you prepared?
"Yes, we are. My team is rehearsing really hard. I just hope they pull it through. I am confident that they will do good job in the finale."
