Just being around Salman Khan, who is so energetic and humorous at the same time, is always entertaining.

I don't use conventional voices for my compositions.

Music is my first love, as it's in my blood.

'Dasavatharam' is science fiction, a multi-crore budgeted film worth Rs 50 to 60 crore and ahead of its time.

It is important for children to learn, whether they want to pursue music or any other field.

I like to create a sound and then leave it behind.

I have too much work as a composer to concentrate on singing.

I'll sing for my films only when I want to.

Whatever my singing aspirations are, you'll hear them in 'Aap Ka Suroor.' It's no run-of-the-mill album.

My hobby is my profession, and therefore, I keep on composing creatively.

As a singer, I always try to keep my music videos clean.

I love all kinds of caps and hats, but my favourite is the baseball cap.

Salman Khan has the fittest body for the last 25 years. He looks younger each passing year. He inspires me a lot.

I acted in 'Aap Kaa Surroor,' which did well. But after that, films didn't work for me.

I do heavy workout for one-and-a-half hours every day.

The concept of 'The Voice' has received acclamation worldwide. There will be blind auditions where the coaches will pick contestants without seeing them. It will be a unique concept for the Indian audience.

Everything that I have earned in my life is just because of my guruji and his omnipotent blessing.

There can never be another Kishore Kumar.

I agree that my films have flopped, and I have been slammed for my nasal voice, my look, and my dialogue delivery. But every time I got a negative feedback, I went out of my way to work on it.

I have always believed in reinventing myself and taking risks.

I am only 30, and music is like a subject for me. I work like a student in every film.

To be good in playback, you need to modulate your voice and sing with an accent that can provide some freshness.

I am shy. People misconstrue it as arrogance.

'Damadamm!' is a sweet comedy, and there is always room for watching a feel-good entertainer on Diwali.

The music of 'Damadamm!' will be released by my company, HR Musik, and you will find a completely different Himesh in every song.

After giving countless hit songs, I felt saturated. I decided to do music only for my own films and music albums. And so, I decided to start my own music label.

I took a break from doing music to concentrate on acting.

I have experimented with various genres of music, whether its rock, pop, slow songs, etc.

I knew that I couldn't afford to go wrong with the music of 'Karzzz.'

I was really sickened with people passing on comments that I have nasal touch while singing. Naturally, when anyone sings with high-pitched octaves, some notes may slight get in touch modalities with nasal, and that doesn't actually mean 'nasal singing.'

I worked for a year to get into the right shape for 'Teraa Surroor.'

'Radio' was made at a budget of Rs 6 crore. Thankfully, the money invested in making the film was recovered through music.

Pooja Bhatt is a very good director.

I took advice from Salman Khan, getting health tips because he is my mentor, and I take his advice for everything I do from Salman bhai. He has given me a lot of tips on body building because he was the first person to start the trend of fitness in the country.

I love Bollywood, I love films, and I like to push myself, which motivates me to work harder.

I don't have the temperament of being a director.

It was a little difficult for me to get six pack abs because I wanted to get them naturally without taking any supplements, and thus it took about three times the usual time.

Your mind and soul must be completely involved in your work all the time. This is how you will achieve success.

Never take your critics lightly. You must always try to win them over by your hard work. Don't brush them off.

Nowadays, everyone is sporting a tattoo, so the uniqueness of having one is gone unless you have an original tattoo.

I know kids who participated in reality shows and became a superstar over time without singing for films, because the opportunities are wider besides films.

When my films didn't work, I wondered what was wrong in my acting graph, and then I realised the dedication I had for music, I didn't have the same for acting.

This whole game of hit and flops will always be there and I have survived because I am hit. I think industry works on hit and flop.

I eat four times a day. The evening snacks are a must.

Just praise is not enough; you've got to get work to survive.

I had never dreamt of acting.

I love challenges, as it breaks the monotony and takes me out of my comfort zone.

Comedy is one genre that I really want to come my way because I was loved for my funny character in 'Khiladi 786.' So, if approached with a good script and good songs, I will certainly take it up.

Before I got the desired effect in my voice, I trained in classical music under my father for several years.

I am neither hurt nor disturbed by the occasional backbiting and criticism from my colleagues. By and large, the music industry has been very supportive.
