<p>Mika Singh says singers should be given priority over film stars when it comes to doing playback in films.<br /><br />Of late a lot of female and male actors have done playback for songs in their films and also managed to strike a chord with the audiences.<br /><br />"I believe if an actor is the right fit for a particular song then by all means he or she should be given the song. However, singers should be given priority," Mika told PTI.<br /><br />On the ongoing trend of popular songs from the 90s being recreated, be it AR Rahman's "Hamma Hamma" or dance number "Tamma Tamma", the 40-year-old singer says he is in favour of it.<br /><br />"Our music directors have created some amazing songs which are now being recreated. I think it's great that songs are being recreated. It is a great way for our youth of today to connect with these songs. I am all for it. You will soon here something from me too..I'll keep it a surprise."<br /><br />Mika, who has collaborated with Salman Khan for films like "Ready", "Kick", "Bajrangi Bhaijaan" among others, was all praise for the superstar.<br /><br />"Salman Khan is Salman Khan...very few can even come close to the legend. Whether he acts or sings his fans are always ecstatic. I have always loved working with him and we have been very lucky for each other," he says.<br /><br />The "440 volt" singer for the first time performed for live radio concert 'GIGCity Season 2', last evening and says the experience was wonderful.<br /><br />"The love of my fans motivates me to give my best performance. The electrifying energy that one can feel during a live concert is enough to charge any performer. And GIGCity is no different. In fact, on Radio City, we are performing live for an even bigger audience. It's a wonderful feeling when you know you are going to perform live for 5.25 crore Indians and interact with them at the same time," he says.</p>
