Q: As you have performed in several countries, tell us what was different about Uzbekistan?
A: I think Uzbekistan was one of the charming experiences for me. The kind of love I received not just as an artiste, but as an Indian performer, it was unsurpassed. I don't think I've got this kind of love, this kind of affection and joy anywhere. People there love Indian culture and Bollywood so much. They just go crazy about Bollywood. It was just a five-day trip, but in those five days I felt I lived a different life altogether.
