Meet The New Pop Diva, Mumaith Khan
- IndiaGlitz, [Tuesday,February 25 2014]
Item girl Mumaith Khan gave her maiden performance as a singer at a beauty pageant last week and the audience were pleasantly surprised by her quality. She promises that it was the first of many such experiences in the future to come. Mumaith wants to become a Pop Diva as the likes of Shakira or Beyonce and sheÂs been ready with her first single.
ÂI canÂt tell you how excited I am. It is an electronic dance number, written in a mix of Telugu and English slang. All I can say about the song it that it is me. IÂm sure a lot of people will be astonished watching me and listening to the song, says Mumait, who has collaborated with DJ Sheizwood for the single.
It all began on a whim. ÂOne day I went to DJ Sheizwood and told him I want to sing. He did not take me seriously, but upon listening to me sing he was pretty impressed and advised me to take some vocal lessons, she says.
The 27-year-old is pretty serious about re-inventing herself as a stage performer. ÂIÂve danced in over 120 item songs and acted in a few films. I want to take it to the next level as a performer. I really love singing and it brings out a side of me that acting and item numbers canÂt. I want to be someone like a Shakira or Beyonce, she says.
