Why did Arijit Singh retire?
Arijit’s tweet, explaining the
reason behind ending his playback singing career, read, “There is not one reason behind this, there are several reasons plus I have been trying to do this since a long time. Finally I have gathered the right courage. One of the reasons were simple, I get bored pretty quick, thats why I keep changing arrangements of the same songs and perform them on stage. So here is the thing, I got bored. I need to do some other music to live.” He also added, “Another reason is I am excited to hear some singer come up and give me real motivation.”
