Neha Bhasin has found her bed of roses once again. The former Viva girl and a trained dancer, Neha is gaining a foothold in the music industry with her latest filmy playback hit You & Me from Pyaar Impossible. She tells CS about her upcoming music album and her musical life:
New beginning
My musical journey has been a seesaw ride, just like life itselfu00a0-- sometimes rocky, while at other times rocking. However, currently I am totally excited about my yet-to-be-titled album, which is a labour of love for me and my music composer Gaurav. This album is a part of me that lives in the youth of todayu00a0-- it is bold, raw and each song unfolds a story of its own.
Besides this, I am also busy touring with my musicians and dance troupe. I love it, as it gives me a chance to stay connected to my listeners. And truthfully, I only breathe for the stage; it is the only place where I feel I belong.u00a0u00a0
Rocking beats
I grew up on pop, pop rock and a lot of classic rock. Nowadays, I listen to a lot of new hip-hop and R&B artistes. But I must say that I owe my musical drive to Michael Jackson. His songs inspired me immensely. Besides his music, I love The Doors, Beatles, Aerosmith, Def Leppard, Madonna, just to name a few. I think among today's artists, Beyonce is phenomenal.
Water baby
I live for music; it's my passion. But at the same time, I love reading, dancing and keeping myself abreast with the latest international trends in music and fashion. I have a very deep and profound love for the sea and am soon planning to travel around the world. I want to visit as many water destinations as I can. Deep sea diving is something that I'm definitely going to try.
