During the conversation, he candidly spoke about age, lifestyle changes, and the shift in his approach toward health. “Zindagi aapko parhez karna sikha deti hai,” he said on cutting down on drinking. Reflecting on his younger days and how time has changed his mindset, he shared, “I used to proudly say, ‘I’m partying today and singing tomorrow. Nothing will happen. Voh bhi koi daur tha, yeh bhi koi daur hai. Woh bhi koi aur tha, yeh bhi koi aur hai.’ Mid-forties, you realise that recovery is not that easy. I’ve cut down on a lot of things. If I go to parties, I control my drinking, and if I have a schedule the next day, I, of course, don’t drink at all. I have reduced cold drinks. Zindagi aapko parhez karna sikha deti hai.”
