No Hindi movie was complete without a track sung by Sadhana Sargam. And now, the singer says, "I won't fight tooth and nail, or try gimmicks to be in the limelight."

Sadhana looks upbeat about her career on TV, and happy with the regional tracks she has been lending her voice to. "I am judging a reality show for children on TV, and it is great to see so much talent. But, unless these children pursue singing as a passion, they cannot make it big. Our voices keep changing as we grow, and we need consistent practise to adjust to the ragas and the surs," she says.

Discussing her career, Sadhana says, "I am not interested in fighting, or waiting around for assignments. If music directors think my voice suits a track, they will contact me. Otherwise, I am happy singing what is coming my way. I am singing in several languages now. In fact, I have sung quite a few songs in Assamese, but I cannot remember them now!"

A Maharashtrian by birth, Sadhana took to singing at a very young age, and wants to continue as long as she can.

Talking about the changes in the recording industry, she says, "There are so many talented writers, composers and directors around now that singing in any Indian language is simple."

"Playback singing has undergone a sea change. There is so much new talent coming into the industry, and each one of them has something different to offer to the listeners. This also means that songs can be written keeping the singers in mind."

Sadhana has singing regularly for A.R. Rahman and says, "I consider myself truly lucky for the association."
