At the recent Geetanjali; Voice of India event organised by Bhojpuri Pariwar Global Foundation and Assamese Cultural Association in Lagos,who was in attendance, spoke with Bollywood legendary musician and actor, Zubeen Garg, who came all the way from India to entertain his Nigerian fansMy name is Zubeen Garg. I am a singer from North-east India, specially called Assam. Assam is famous for tea; it’s called Assam-Tea. We produce the highest number of tea in the world after China.
I am the only one who has sang more than 16,000 songs there. So I am quite old, I am 46 years old now, but my mind is still young. So now, I’m more into making films. Most of my 25 years were into music, songs; many of which were adopted for Bollywood movies. Even in Bollywood I sang many songs in good films and all of that, then I travelled to Bombay. I stayed there for some time before I came back to Assam. Now I am back to Assam because of my film industry; I want to promote it more.
