Singer Kanika Kapoor, who is popular for her Bollywood songs with Punjabi lyrics, says she is from Uttar Pradesh and doesn’t know the language very well. “I don’t know Punjabi. I’m a UP Khatri. I recently sang a Bengali song — an interesting song which will be out in two weeks. I’ve also sung a Kannada song,” the singer said. “When I was memorising the lyrics of Baby Doll, I would say‘ye duniya peetal di.’ I didn’t know the Punjabi pronunciation but I learnt and delivered,” Kanika told reporters on the occasion of World Music Day.
