"We are finally close to BTS - even if indirectly," were the words from the Desi ARMY when they saw an Indian-origin man feature in the group's leader RM's music video "Lost" from his album "Right Place, Wrong Person." The Indian man can be spotted at the beginning of the video and towards the end as a talk show host wearing a yellow turtleneck and a brown jacket. However, according to Tarsvinder Singh Sihra, aka Taz Singh, he had no idea until the end that he would be featured in the video belonging to a BTS member.
Taz, a talent from the UK of Indian origin, who is currently filming in Japan, spoke exclusively with Desimartini about how he landed the role, how Kim Namjoon is in real life, his future projects, and his hopes of working with other artists, including India's very own Diljit Dosanjh.
When asked how he got the chance to work with RM, Taz said, "There was an audition for a K-pop music artist, and at that point, we didn't know who it was. So I gave the audition and then I had to do another take, and they liked that. I did not know until the very end that it would be with the BTS rapper." He stated that the process was very confidential and the agency did not want any leaks or loopholes before the release of the song's music video.
With Taz being a fan of BTS, especially having heard a lot of Korean songs due to his friend circle being of various Asian origins, he stated it was a great opportunity. What's also fascinating is that Taz knows how to speak both Korean and Japanese very well.
Talking about working with RM in the music video, Taz shared that he feels blessed to have worked with him. "RM is a really cool person. He is genuine and I love how his music speaks to people." He even stated that it was one of the best experiences on set he has ever had and thanked RM's whole team for such a wonderful journey.
When asked if there are any Indian artists he would love to work with, he said there are many, but Diljit Dosanjh surely stands out as he loves his craziness and his work.
He also thanked the BTS ARMY, especially the Indian fans who showered him with love and praise, and said he hopes to see their support for his future projects.
