Aditya Narayan Reveals He Has Only Rs. 18K Left In His Account; With His Savings Depleted Singer Says, 'It’s Really Tough'

The Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent lockdown has been harsh on the best of us and singer and Indian Idol host Aditya Narayan admits it was no different for him. The singer who recently announced that he getting married to his long time girlfriend Shweta Aggarwal has said that he never imagined sitting at home with no work for almost a year.

Speaking to the portal Bollywood Bubble the singer spoke about his lockdown blues and said, “If the government extends the lockdown even further, people will start dying of hunger. My whole savings are depleted. I’ve literally finished my savings. All the money I had invested in Mutual Funds, I had to withdraw all of that (to survive). Because nobody had planned that I wouldn’t be working for a year and yet chilling it out. Nobody plans it like that. Unless you’re like some billionaire. So there is no choice. Like I’ve Rs 18,000 left in my account. So if I don’t start working by October, I would have no money. I would have to sell off my bike or something. It’s really tough.”

Mercifully for him the new season of Indian Idol has been announced where he will be returning as the host. The show will see Neha Kakkar, Vishal Dadlani and Himesh Reshamiya return as judges.
