By MIO Team


We all know that ghazal maestro Jagjit Singh is passionate about music. Every time this ace singer sings he weaves magic with his mesmerizing voice. But many don't know that he is equally passionate about horse racing. He is currently in Pune where the racing season is on as he is ardent about racing. And he makes sure that he is there every year. "I have four horses and they participate in the races. I love races. But I don't come only for races. Music is also a cause. My horses are very special to me but unfortunately I can't give too much time to them," he says. Also he likes being to Pune as people there have a taste for classical music.

Deterring the trend of mechanical music, which is in vogue he says, "A lot of garbage is being played. A number of DJs and RJs who have no knowledge of music are mixing songs. But I am sure enough that this trend will go away. Classical music will make a comeback," he quotes. He has been in the music scene for 30 years now and his principle of life still continues to be hard work. "You should never think that you know too much. Hard work and quest for knowledge are two most important things in life," he wraps up saying.
