The only thing we can do is take one day at a time with humility, gratitude and hope. And I am going to try and make at least one of those days as happy and joyful as I can in the only way I know. And that is through my music. Join me and Hungama as I take you through a selection of my favourite songs which I have released over the past thirty years – some of which you may not have heard but will hopefully bring you peace, entertain you, or even just make you laugh at a time when we all need it the most. This is what the digital concerts with Hungama Artist Aloud will offer. And I am looking forward to being a part of it.”
