Singer Arijit Singh was spotted in a cheerful mood as he cast his vote in the West Bengal Elections 2026 on April 23, accompanied by his wife Koel Roy. When approached by photographers, Arijit politely declined requests to share a message or display his inked finger, citing that it could create unnecessary chaos. He joked that he might end up sounding like a politician, and instead urged the media to cover the democratic exercise with responsibility.

Arijit's decision to keep a low profile came as the state witnessed a high voter turnout, with 91.91% of ballots cast in phase 1 of the assembly elections. The singer's father, Surinder Singh, also cast his vote in Murshidabad, expressing satisfaction with the smooth voting process.

Arijit's recent decision to step away from playback singing has sent shockwaves through the music industry, but he has reassured fans that he won't stop making music. He has a backlog of previously recorded songs that will continue to be released over the coming months.
