Although it wasn’t easy as it seemed, the zeal to try something new has kept me going. This beautiful journey from “Tum jo mil Gaye to” to the final performance “Chukar mere Mann ko” on this stage is very precious.”
Thanking the viewers, Mr Lele said that he’s glad that the audience has never failed to recognize the efforts he had put in while enacting the roles when singing on the stage.
