As a result, I had to get my own playground which was my band Colours. This band lasted for about eight years and then the air was out of it and it was time to finish.

Whenever I release a record, it's my record. It's not a selfish thought. I may work all year 'round for other people. So, finally, when I come out with my own album, it should be me with the creative help of other musicians.

I had my own motor boat which we would take to Khadakvasla, but that was 40 years ago.

And then I bought my own horse, which I had until it died.

It's better to finish at the peak or soon after it, than to wait until the audience notices a decline.

At the age of eight I became, in my own eyes at least, a writer.
