I'm rarely singing in English.

I was singing before I could talk.

I always wanted to sing English songs, ever since I was, like, 10 or 12 years old.

I only know acting. But had I learnt singing earlier, I would have become a singer.

I used to sing songs from musicals all the time as a kid.

I studied classical opera, so I was always singing in Italian and German and French.

I knew from a young age that I could sing and it was impressed upon me that if I got a classically trained education in voice, it would serve as a foundation for whatever I chose to do.

I learnt to sing in Bengali, my mother tongue, then went on to sing in Hindi, Telugu, Tamil, Gujarati and every possible Indian language.

I grew up singing, and I played on Broadway to thousands of people, you know what I mean?

As soon as I could speak, I was singing. Before I could even speak full words, I would make up ones to sing and I have it on tape, too.
