Kailash Kher speaks on World Music Day

"Thank God there is a day which makes people celebrate Music and its importance in life because to me, music is everything which can’t be explained in words", said the singer. Kher believes that while "words are limited, music is limitless." Further, he spoke about how important music was to him. 

"Music makes a difference to me in all possible way. To be honest, I realised quite early during my childhood that people around me from different walks, even though they weren’t respected in their surroundings when they used to sing at local gatherings, they were full of joy and happiness." He explained that people's moods would be lifted because of music and that their "childlike energy became infectious". 

He even spoke about how his Sufi band Kailasa and how their songs were focused on the aim of spreading happiness through music. "I want to spread happiness and joy from my music and the inspiration behind me taking up music have to be my Pita ji, Maa and all the greats in the Music World. I would love to see people respect music the way it used to be earlier. I also hope people across all walks of life help promote music", he said.
