In a revelatory podcast interview hosted by his friend Tarasseme Mittal, Bollywood's reigning singing sensation Arijit Singh shared intriguing insights into the introduction of auto-tune technology in India, crediting none other than the legendary A.R Rahman for its initiation.

Singh acknowledged Rahman's pivotal role in bringing auto-tune to the Indian music scene, stating, "A.R. Rahman was the trailblazer who introduced auto-tune in India. It was a game-changer at the time." However, Singh went on to reveal that despite being an early adopter, Rahman eventually moved away from using auto-tune in his compositions.

During the candid conversation, Singh emphasized that auto-tune, while a valuable tool, does not possess the transformative power to turn a non-singer into a singer.

It's more about fine-tuning minor mistakes, correcting notes, and enhancing the overall musical experience," explained the melodious crooner.

Arijit Singh, renowned for his soul-stirring renditions in Bollywood, including chart-toppers like "Tum Hi Ho," "Channa Mereya," "Gerua," "Phir Le Aaya Dil," and "Bedardiya" expressed his admiration for A.R Rahman's versatility and impact on the global music stage.

His illustrious career includes winning an Oscar for the song "Jai Ho" from the movie 'Slumdog Millionaire' in 2009. Rahman's contribution to the music industry continues to be influential, making him a revered figure among musicians and fans alike.
