Noted
singer
Sonu
Nigam
says
he
is
happy
for
Babul
Supriyo,
who
has
turned
politician
and
became
a
minister
in
central
government,
but
rejected
the
idea
of
him
joining
politics
in
the
near
future.
"I
am
very
happy
for
him.
Babul
has
seen
tough
times
in
his
life...
I'm
happy
to
see
that
he
has
taken
this
path
(of
politics)
and
has
become
a
minister
now," Nigam,
41,
said
during
his
recent
visit
to
the
national
capital.
Supriyo,
who
voiced
popular
songs
in
films
like
'Kaho
Naa...
Pyaar
Hai,
'Hum
Tum' among
others,
was
on
Sunday
inducted
as
Minister
of
State
for
Urban
Development,
Housing
and
Urban
Poverty
Alleviation
in
the
Narendra
Modi
government
after
he
won
the
Lok
Sabha
election
from
Asansol
constituency
in
West
Bengal.
Asked
if
he
also
intends
to
take
the
political
recourse
like
Supriyo,
the
national-award
winning
vocalist
said,
"As
for
myself,
I
don't
see
myself
there.
I
don't
even
think
I
am
made
for
politics
or
maybe
politics
is
not
made
for
me."
"I
can't
go
to
the
parliament
and
shout
like
they
are
shown
at
times," he
said.
The
'Panchhi
Nadiyan'
hitmaker
said
he
wants
to
stay
in
peace
and
rather
take
up
social
services
to
work
for
people
instead
of
joining
politics.
"I'd
rather
prefer
to
take
up
social
services
to
work
for
people
but
certainly
not
politics.
I
like
to
keep
my
life
simple
and
peaceful.
I
don't
want
to
lose
the
peace," he
said.
Talking
about
his
latest
number,
the
title
track
from
the
upcoming
Yash
Raj
flick
'Kill
Dil',
Nigam
said,
"I'm
hoping
that
the
film
does
well
and
people
keep
liking
the
song."
