Demonetization reminds me of my Delhi days, says Mohit Chauhan

Mohit Chauhan, whose music journey began from Delhi, keeps coming to the city to meet his in-laws. We caught up with him at a story-telling festival, where he shared a bit about his days in the capital. "My career began here. I used to live in Mayur Vihar and later shifted to South Extension. I generally liked to roam around Connaught Place and Lodhi Gardens. I met my wife here.Delhi has played a pivotal role in my both personal and professional life," said the Matargashti singer. He added, "Mumbai doesn't have winters, and so having tea and spicy food here in winters is always wonderful."
Mohit grew up in the hills and enjoys driving from Delhi to Himachal. While the singer was here to take a break from the hectic life of Mumbai, he felt the smog was terrible when he arrived. "Being in smoggy Delhi was a gloomy feeling. The situation has gotten better now and I hope the authorities do something about it. But, you know, the hills are the best place to go when such things happen," says Mohit, whose hometown is Nahan, Himachal Pradesh.
About the side-effects of demonetization, he said, "Well, thanks to some friends who supplied me with some Rs 100 notes, I don't have to stand in the queues. But you can see that people are facing a lot of inconvenience. These days, however, I am reminded of my Delhi days, when we only had Rs 100 notes to spend! It's funny that just a few days back, we wouldn't bother about Rs 10 and Rs 20 notes, and now they are of more importance than bigger denominations!"
