Himesh Reshammiya's LOL Question To Fans During Mumbai Concert: " Regular Gau Yaa Naak Se?"
New Delhi: Himesh Reshammiya kickstarted his CapMania Tour with a bang in Mumbai on Saturday. The singer left no stone unturned to mesmerise the crowd present at the Bandra Kurla Complex. Himesh Reshammiya, known for his unique voice and a string of early 2000s hits, not only entertained audiences but also used the platform to address years of public debate and internet criticism surrounding his vocal style. In one of the videos making rounds on the internet, Himesh is seen singing a few lines from his popular song Aashiq Banaya Aapne. Afterwards, he turns to the audience and playfully asks, 'Thoda regular gau ya naak se? [Should I sing normally or nasally?]' – a question that instantly elicits applause and laughter from the crowd. In a previous interview with Pinkvilla, Himesh Reshammiya claimed to have started the nasal singing trend in Bollywood. The singer said, 'Aaj toh nasal ki baat bhi nahi karahe hain. [Today, they are talking about nasal singing]. Many people did nasal singing after me, so many of my songs became hits." He added, "Even though I call it nasal singing today, for me, it was never nasal, it was high-pitched singing. It was a cry for help! In the 'Aashiq Banaya' video, this guy is actually crying in pain, singing, as well as dancing…" In the same conversation, Himesh also reacted to Janhvi Kapoor 's comment about him doing bicep curls to his song, Tandoori Nights. The actress had said, "It's the best thing in the world. I love it." Reacting to the same, Himesh said, "Oh wow, Tandoori... outstanding. Ab Tandoori Days, Tandoori Nights, ab Tandoori Afternoons, pata nahi kya kya aayega (Now Tandoori Days, Tandoori Nights, now Tandoori Afternoons. I don't know what else will come)." "I know and yeh bahut acchi baat hai ki Tandoori Nights ke actually itne saal ho gaye lekin uski jo ek likeability hai woh kahin na kahin iss gaane ko bahut kamaal banati hai (I know and it is very good that Tandoori Nights has been around for so many years, but the likeability that it has is what makes this song so amazing)," the singer added. On the work front, Himesh Reshammiya is set to continue his CapMania concert tour, with his next performance scheduled in Delhi on July 19.

In his high-pitched nasal tune, Himesh sang two lines of Aashiq Banaya Aapne for them. Recently, the 51-year-old singer spoke about his nasal style of singing. He told Pinkvilla, 'Aaj toh nasal ki baat bhi nahi kar rahe hain (Nobody is making that criticism of my nasal singing these days). Many people did nasal singing after me, so many of my songs became hits." He further explained why there was even a need for his nasal singing in Aashiq Banaya Aapne. Himesh said in the same interview, 'Actually, even though I call it nasal singing today, for me, it was never nasal, it was high-pitched singing. It was a cry for help! In the 'Aashiq Banaya' video, this guy is actually crying in pain, singing, as well as dancing." Himesh had also responded to Janhvi Kapoor mocking his Instagram videos on Koffee With Karan – specifically one where he's working out with 'Tandoori Nights' playing in the background. 'Yes, I know. This is a very good thing. It has been so many years but the likeability of 'Tandoori Nights' remains. We have millions of views, the word 'tandoori' is very lucky for me," he said. Meanwhile, the I Love You Saiyyoni singer expanded his horizons by stepping into acting after making an indelible mark in the music industry.

Himesh Reshammiya takes a dig at critics, asks fans at Mumbai concert 'regular gau yaa naak se?'
Himesh Reshammiya has responded to long-standing criticism of his singing style, addressing the debate head-on during a recent concert in Mumbai. Speaking to a cheering audience, the singer-composer asked whether they preferred his singing in a "regular" tone or in his widely recognised "nasal" manner — a vocal style that has often divided opinion on social media. In the video, after singing two lines of Aashiq Banaya Aapne, Himesh asks the audience, "Thoda regular gau yaa naak se?" (Should I sing in a regular style or nasally?) The 51-year-old artist, who rose to fame in the early 2000s with a string of hit songs, reflected on his journey in a earlier interview. 'I always thought I was doing high-pitch singing,' said Reshammiya, before confidently claiming that he had been the one to introduce nasal singing to the Bollywood music scene. 'Aaj toh nasal ki baat bhi nahi kar rahe hain (Nobody is even talking about my nasal singing these days),' he said, noting how many artists had followed in his footsteps. 'Many people did nasal singing after me. So many of my songs became hits.' Known for chart-toppers like 'Tera Suroor' and 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne', Reshammiya's signature sound has attracted both acclaim and mockery. In the same interview, he responded to actor Janhvi Kapoor's recent comments on Koffee With Karan, where she poked fun at his older Instagram videos. He added, 'It's a good thing. It has been so many years, but the likeability of 'Tandoori Nights' remains. We have millions of views — the word 'tandoori' is very lucky for me.' Reshammiya, who was recently seen in his film 'Badass Ravikumar', is currently on his CapMania concert tour.
