MUMBAI: Singer Papon says nature comes first to him, adding that it has a huge influence on his music.
"Nature comes first to me, it is something I feel really connected to. My music is often inspired by nature," Papon said.
"While this lockdown has helped me spend time with my family and create music, the only thing I feel deprived of is going to the hills and forests. 'Dhakk dhakk dharti' is a beautiful melody, when Shaan asked me to sing a few lines I was really excited as it was a song about nature and awareness. I hope we all are able to defeat this pandemic very soon," he added.
