What's the reason behind retirement?
Arijit's decision to quit playback singing has left fans heartbroken and curious, wondering what led him to this point. Responding to fans, Singh wrote that there is not one reason behind this.
‘’There is not one reason behind this, there are several reasons plus I have been trying to do this since a long time. Finally I have gathered the right courage,” he explained. One of those reasons, he admitted, is restlessness. “One of the reasons were simple, I get bored pretty quick, that’s why I keep changing arrangements of the same songs and perform them on stage. So here is the thing, I got bored. I need to do some other music to live,” he wrote.
