Kumar Sanu: Ahmedabad's Fafda-Jalebi & AI Woes

Legendary singer Kumar Sanu recently graced Ahmedabad, sharing his affection for the city's vibrant culture and delicious Gujarati cuisine, especially fafda-jalebi. His visit coincided with his involvement in legal actions to protect celebrity personality rights, a move he deems essential given the increasing misuse of AI technology and the proliferation of unauthorized online content.

Sanu expressed immense pride in his daughters, Shannon K and his other daughter who is a music composer. He emphasized their independent journey in the music industry, noting that while he offers financial support, their success in Hollywood is entirely their own achievement. He also touched upon the ongoing debate surrounding nepotism, suggesting that parental support for a child's career is natural, not inherently negative.

Reflecting on his extensive career, which includes playback singing for over 1,500 films and approximately 26,000 songs, Sanu stated his inability to pick a favorite but mentioned "Jab Koi Baat Bigad Jaye" as particularly close to his heart. He also voiced concerns about the sustainability of talent nurtured through reality shows, arguing that early fame can hinder originality and long-term career growth.
