WHAT CAN YOUR FANS EXPECT FROM YOUR INDIA TOUR THIS TIME?

I KNOW YOU WOULD HAVE BEEN ASKED THIS QUESTION A MILLION TIMES, BUT PLEASE TELL YOUR FANS ONCE AGAIN HOW DID YOUR MUSICAL JOURNEY START AND WHAT WAS IT THAT MADE YOU SO PASSIONATE ABOUT BECOMING A SINGER/ MUSICIAN AND A LEGEND IN THE MUSIC WORLD LATER WITH YOUR ALBUM CUTS LIKE A KNIFE?

I always wanted to be a guitarist, but when I was rehearsing with my first band, at 14, in my mother's basement, no one in the room wanted to be the singer, so I said I'd fill in until we found someone. So I became the singer.
