โ€œI have many participated in various singing competitions and talent shows, but yet to win one,โ€ Mawlong said.

โ€œI have not lost hope or given up on my dream of becoming a singer. I want to continue pursuing my dream and soon I will come up with a music album in Hindi,โ€ Mawlong reiterated.

Mawlong says he was inspired to sing Hindi songs after he witnessed local lad Amit Paul doing well and eventually becoming the runner-up of Indian Idol-3 in 2007.

Mawlong, so far, has participated in the Sursargam 2013, Indian Idol 2015, North East Idol 2016, Saregama Pa 2016, besides local singing competitions including Gospel song singing competition.
