MUMBAI:  Harshdeep Kaur has made her mark in Bollywood with her popular Sufi songs. In a candid conversation with Radioandmusic.com, the ‘Ik Onkar’ singer said, “I have sung a song called 'Mere Mahi' for the upcoming film Irada which is a solo number and a beautiful song. The music is composed by singer-songwriter Neeraj Shridhar who is all set to stage a revisit as a music director. The song is a contemporary song; though it has some evident classical touches which make the song more interesting. I have also recorded a song which is a duet number for the upcoming movie Sultan which will be releasing this Eid.”

“I have recently released a Punjabi single Maye Ni Maye which is very close to my heart. I recorded this on the GarageBand app on my phone. And then we shot the video on my iPhone 6s in 4K video mode. I want to do more film songs in near future,” says Kaur while talking about her upcoming projects.  The singer is in upbeat mode - she will soon be performing for the first time in Radio Mirchi's Roohani Festival to be held this June.

Trained at the Delhi School of Music, Harshdeep says, “Learning classical music is the basic criterion. Knowledge of ragas, taals are significant if you want to be in the industry in the long run.” She has sung some leading Bollywood songs such as ‘Katiya Karoon’ from ‘Rockstar’, ‘Heer’ from ‘Jab Tak Hai Jaan’ and ‘Ik Onkar’ from ‘Rang De Basanti’. Harshdeep is also the winner of the reality show Junoon, Kuch Kar Dikhaane Ka which was aired on NDTV Imagine in 2008 and MTV's Video Gaga contest 2001, as well as Alpha Punjabi's Sa Re Ga Ma Pa Punjabi talent hunt.
