Sample Answer

Since my childhood I have been into Indian classical music, it fills me up with joy and pleasure. Undoubtedly my favourite celebrity is a great musician. The name of this person is A.R. Rahman. He is a film composer, producer, singer and songwriter who works predominantly in Tamil and Hindi films.

Some of my favourite songs by him are kun faya kun, tum ho, phir se ud chala. I like listening to his interviews on the internet, wherein he tells about the technicalities of classical singing in a very easy and practical manner.
The magic of his composition is what makes me his admirer. And apart from that he is also a great human being. Once I got a chance to meet him at Chennai airport and I was impressed by his generosity.

He has played a major role in introducing our beautiful music culture to the rest of the world. He has been awarded with Padma Bhushan, Academy Award for best music and Grammy awards for the 2008 film Slumdog millionaire.

I like him for his modest nature and his remarkable work in Indian Cinema. He has multiple times represented India on a global level and I think we need more musicians like him to make our cultural music popular in the globe and I am sure a lot of musicians see him as a role model.
