is
taking
a
six-month
break
from
television
to
focus
on
his
music
career.
The
singer
also
assured
his
fans
that
this
is
not
a
permanent
departure.
Aditya
shared
a
collage
of
pictures
from
his
shows
and
wrote
his
journey
on
television
has
been
a
humbling
experience.
The
singer
revealed
that
he
is
the
only
person
who
hosted
three
music
reality
shows
back
to
back
across
three
different
channels
and

that
out
of
eight
shows,
three

them
were
top
shows
across
all
channels
during
its
run.
Aditya
wrote,
"More
than
350
episodes
of
content.
That's
roughly
3500
hours.
If
you
sleep
for
8
hours
a
day
and
watch
me
for
the
remaining
16,
you
can
watch
me
non
stop
for
more
than
6
months.
More
than
100
live
shows
all
over
India
&
the
world
with
my
band,
The
A
Team.
Started
touring
with
AR
Rahman
sir
&
sang
for
a
few
upcoming
Hindi
films.
Released
my
first
independent
single
&
music
video,
'Lillah'
which
has
over
10
million
views
on
YouTube
so
far.
Add
to
that
doing
my
riyaaz
&
working
out
almost
everyday,
rehearsals,
meetings
etc.
My
life's
purpose
has
always
been
to
make
music.
As
much
as
I
love
TV,
working
on
so
many
TV
shows
has
not
allowed
me
time
to
work
on
the
level
of
&
amount
of
music
that
I
would
want
to.
Hence,
I
am
taking
a
sabbatical
from
Indian
Television
for
6
months
to
work
on
my
debut
album
&
music
videos.
My
next
3
TV
shows
already
signed
so
it's
not
a
permanent
departure."
