Did you know Navraj Hans never wanted to be a singer? Speaking to Radio and Music.com, he had said that “singing was not my first choice.” “Although the atmosphere was of music at home and we heard some quality music, I never wanted to be a singer. But slowly I developed an interest and started singing,” he had said.
In the same interview, Navraj Hans had opened up about his father, the legendary Hans Raj Hans. As per Navraj Hans, “Singing is a small part of what all I have learned from my father.” He added, “He [Hans Raj Hans] is my star, my guru and has the greatest influence on me. I observe the way he interacts with the audience when he is performing live, and it is very inspiring. He has also taught me tehzeeb, especially towards seniors. Apart from being an amazing singer, he is a great speaker too, because he is extremely well-read.”
