I have worked with Neha Kakkar, Vishal Dadlani and Himesh Reshammiya – the judges of Indian Idol 12 – before. My approach towards the show will be of a fan. My parents follow it religiously.”
He further said, “I am just going to be myself. There is no special prep as such, I will just go enjoy myself because I think that’s how it’s done. I underwent the test yesterday and it was negative.”
