Prashant Tamang
The album comprises 11 songs, including three versions of the same track and a composition by Zubin Garg. The video of the title track Zindagi Pehle Kabhie is already on air.
The 22-year-old singer from Darjeeling was working earlier with Kolkata police and it was his colleagues who motivated him to give music a serious thought. "I am musical by nature. But, the day I joined the police force, my dreams to pursue singing took a back seat. Nonetheless, my senior, Zulfiquar Hasan, Special Additional Commissioner of Police, pushed me to give auditions for Indian Idol 3," says Tamang. Tamang was called the dark horse of the show and everybody was taken by surprise when he made it to the final two. Even Tamang seconds the point. "Amit was a tough contender and I was never sure of winning. But it is the love of supporters and blessings that I could make it," he smiles. Life is no more the same for Tamang post- Indian Idol, who occasionally misses the carefree days.
"Today, stepping out of home needs planning and adequate arrangements." But this cloud certainly has a silver lining. The pop sensation has earned considerable female fan following in a short span of time. "I am shy by nature. I would never walk up to somebody and strike a conversation. But certainly, I feel good when girls mob me for autographs," comes his honest statement.
