Sometimes, simplicity defines itself in little expressions of modesty. Perhaps that reasons Amitabh Narayan's humble disposition that allows an easy and unrestricted flow of conversation. He rose to the front burner of popularity, curtsey Indian Idol and Voice of India. And though his story is bereft of the conventional hardships and struggle that most Indian musicians face through their journey from dreams to reality, his is a story that spells belief and conviction. In Changigarh to perform at an event organised by PGI, we engage in an interesting banter with him.
