Lucky also said that Arijit's decision wasn't a loss. "You've got to go stand in the musician's shoes to understand what he's really feeling. And if he's taken a step to that effect, something must have snapped within him. I totally agree with Arijit when he made the stand. And it's not a loss. He's definitely going to sing, and he's going to express himself, but he's not going to do it with the circumstances that were there before. You've got to make your own road like how we've done; we made our own road," he said.

Lucky Ali talks about his own music journey

Reflecting on his own journey, Lucky said every newcomer has to confront challenges. "Nothing is offered to you on a plate; you have to present your case in the best way possible and be convinced about what you're doing. Once you do that and once you've crossed that hurdle, it's a bit easier. But it doesn't necessarily mean that the road is easy. It's easier to just go ahead and then do more work in that sense," the singer-songwriter said.
