I love my country more than anything else and that reflects in my compositions too. I wanted to do something for my nation. But destiny had other plans in store and life took a U-turn at 17, when people heard my compositions. Once I started doing films, there was no looking back. I believe that everything is pre-destined and whatever happens, happens for the best," Malik said during the launch of the singing reality show Star Ya Rockstarin Mumbai.
While his stint as a judge on reality shows has always made headlines, as he got involved in verbal fights with co-judges like Farah Khan, Malik says, "No one should ever question my credibility as a composer or judge. So, in Star Ya Rockstar, I love being the solo judge. While a lot of people feel my fights with co-judges are scripted, I genuinely lose it sometimes. But trust me, I hate getting into fights."
He adds, "Me and Farah share a love-hate relationship, but I adore her. She has got a mind of her own but when she says something, I listen. So, when I do the same, she better listen!"
