According to Supriyo, the prime minister himself encourages his singing."Modiji himself inspired me to carry on with my singing. Music is to me what a charger is to a mobile. Besides, at the moment I’m a very happy man. Therefore, I’ll be able to sing much better than before. So who knows, this could be a new beginning for me as a singer," said the newly appointed minister.


At the same time, Babul is aware that his new role as a BJP minister imposes certain curbs on his activities."There are a few modalities involved in my new job, and my ministerial berth will surely bring in some constraints. I won’t be able to perform at live shows any more," he said.

He is reconciled to the restraints now imposed on his life as an entertainer.

“I know I won’t be able to dance on stage anymore. But nothing should come in the way of my studio recordings. I’m sure I’ll be able to balance out my role as a singer and a responsible cabinet minister, and I’ll be able to abide by all the necessary rules and the protocol that I’m expected to follow," he said.
