PRINCE of POP
Filmfare|September 2022
Composer and singer Amaal Mallik has not only made a name for himself through his work in Hindi films but has also climbed the popularity charts when it comes to independent music. Being the grandson of iconic veteran music director Sardar Malik, he's aware of his legacy. Like his grandfather, he's known for the infusion of melody in his compositions. Currently, he's also hosting a show called Ravivaar With Star Parivaar. It's the start of a new innings for him but he's taken to it like a duck takes to water. Clearly, there was an actor hidden in him which has come out now. He's reached many milestones in his young age but remains humble and rooted as ever. Excerpts from an interview where the talented composer talks about his new ventures, changing face of film music and more...
ANURADHA CHOUDHARY
PRINCE of POP

Let’s start with your new avatar as a TV host. I’m ecstatic.

The first few times I did it, it was a complete departure from my world because we come from the film industry and TV is in a different league. 16 hours of shooting on set. That is very unusual for a composer of music to do. But I’ve always acted like an anchor when I looked in the mirror since I was a child. “This year’s recipient is...” I used to change my voice and do this in the shower.

How did this happen?

They desired someone with musical ability and the ability to sing. They auditioned me and fell in love with me. They wanted someone who is young and introduces new music to the show. Because it is a show that appeals to a wide range of people. The music spans the years from 1930 to 2022.

What was the experience?

I’m interacting with different types of people. Arjun Bijlani and I have a good chemistry as well. On the set, we are similar to Jay and Veeru. It’s almost like one big family.

Is there an actor hidden inside you?
