Hua Chhokra Jawaan Re: Happy B'day Vishal Dadlani

Mumbai: It’s music director, lyricist, playback singer Vishal Dadlani’s birthday today and we snatched five minutes from his big day to ask him five quick questions.

Q: So what are the big plans for the day?

A: (Laughs) I just finished lunch with Farah, Shekhar, Piyali, Sujoy and am planning to take it easy for the rest of the day. I’m really not much of a ‘party’ person, so I’m just going to relax and spend as much time with my family and friends.

Happy birthday Vishal Dadlani. Hope you live your dreams and keep giving us great music.

Q: Birthday’s usually bring in a lot of nostalgia… is there one thing you feel grateful for today?

A: Definitely my family and friends. And music, it’s the air we breathe.

Q: Describe Shekhar in one word.

A: Awesome.

Q: What could be the best present anyone could give you today?

A: I’d love to be on stage, playing with my band Pentagram. Up there, I feel the happiest.

Q: We know all your compositions would be your favourite, but is there one special tune?

A: Voice, Pentagram. It’s what I identify with the most.

From Pyaar Mein Kabhi Kabhi to Ishaqzaade, Dadlani has made great music, so we compiled a playlist with some of his popular tracks, Voice being right on top.
