Kumar Sanu spoke in the interview and told how he gets immense love and respect from music directors, but sadly, none of it translates into work opportunities. During an interview with one of the media houses, Kumar Sanu said, ‘My journey has been great so far in the industry. Everyone in the industry respects me a lot. But the biggest thing is that people give respect, and love, and also listen to my songs. I don’t know why they are not using my voice for songs in Hindi films now I don’t understand the issue.’

Kumar Sanu, famous for songs like ‘Chura Ke Dil Mera’, ‘Jeeta Tha Jiske Liye’, ‘Nazar Ke Samne’, ‘Saanson Ki Zaroorat’, and ‘Main Duniya Bhula Dunga’, said that sometimes he wonders whether this love is true or not.
