The man is a legend. His voice defines an era of Bollywood music. If he wants to step back and focus on directing, more power to him. We should respect his decision and just be grateful for the pending songs.

Honestly, the note is a bit all over the place with the "spike proteins" and "5g" bits. But the core message is clear: he has contractual obligations to finish. The industry must have a huge backlog of his recordings.

As a fan from the US, his music transcends borders. It's interesting to see how the Indian film music pipeline works. Wishing him all the best for his directorial venture!

Typical Bollywood drama. Announces retirement, then clarifies. But with Arijit, I'll make an exception. The man has given us too many classics. "Tum Hi Ho" alone earns him a lifetime pass. Take your time, sir.

His message to "read love meditate" is so needed in today's stressful world. Maybe this break from new work is for his own peace. Artists need space to create in other forms. Excited for his film!
