Srinagar: A Kashmiri singer wants the Kashmiri language to find more space in Bollywood through his singing.

Ishfaq Kawa, who hails from Bandipora district, said he is working hard to perform in Bollywood.

"I want the Kashmiri language to reach Bollywood and I also want to reach Bollywood. I am working hard to reach Mumbai and perform in Bollywood," Ishfaq Kawa told ANI.

Sharing about his interest in singing, the young singer said, "There was no such atmosphere of singing here, but I learned by listening to others. I wanted to make Kashmir proud. I am having God gifted talent which inspired me towards singing".
