While Parineeti Chopra continues to prove her mettle with rich content-driven and commercial films, the actress is all set to officially begin her music career. She has time and again expressed her love for singing and has even showcased her skills on a few occasions, including her wedding day. Parineeti recently impressed fans with her first live performance and her fans are eager to see her embark on this new journey. Her husband, Raghav Chadha, is equally excited.
She told Pinkvilla, “He was like, ‘Oh my God. This is something you should have done like 10 years ago.’ He was just so encouraging of it. With your partner, you have so many discussions about your insecurities, but personally I am not that person. I am not insecure at all. So I will never go up to him and say, ‘Listen, I’m really stressed, and I don’t know what to do.’ I am a very positive person. So the moment I told him about this he was like ‘Just go for it’,”
Talking about what influenced her to begin her music career, she said, “My only and biggest influence in music has been my father. In fact, my mother too but in a very different way. She used to tell me stories about when she changed my nappies, and she would sing songs to me, right from ABCD, to the ‘Hills Are Alive’. She would sing Mariah Carey songs to me as well. I remember by the time I was three, my father used to do stage shows, and I would stand next to him and sing along. So I feel like my entire childhood was about music.”
Parineeti said, “I got a degree in music just because of my parents. I know that everybody says this line, but for me, it’s actually true that music is my life. It has been my entire life. So imagine I come into an industry where music is an actual career, and for 12 years I didn’t do it, I did something else. I did films, brands, this and that, but I never got into music full-time. All my directors would often say ‘Why don’t you sing professionally’, and in my heart, I was like, ‘Bas mere ko ek chance de do’.” “Finally that day is here. I’m so happy,” the actress added.
Meanwhile, on the film front, she will soon be seen in Imtiaz Ali’s Chamkila, alongside Diljit Dosanjh.
