Aditya Narayan calls independent music 'unconditional', says 'there are no barriers'

In an exclusive video chat with an entertainment portal, singer Aditya Narayan spoke about how independent music has its own essence in India. Aditya Narayan said that it is the perfect time to encourage film music and the artists that come along with various music labels. Talking about independent music, Aditya revealed that the good part of about independent music is that there are no barriers and that whichever type of music someone likes, they can deliver it to the audience.

Aditya continued that people can also make the type of songs and videos they like. When it comes to films, Narayan added that people are told that they need hit songs, the song should have ringtone and that there should be some number of views. The singer revealed that there are a lot of conditions. However, independent music is the most unconditional way to make music, said Aditya Narayan. 

Speaking about his song Main Dooba Rahoon, the actor revealed that he made the song five years ago, but he lacked the money to shoot such a beautiful video at that time. However, over years, after working on several TV shows, he could make the video, revealed Aditya.
