Born as Tejinder Singh Maan and known professionally as Babbu Maan, he chose to build his career on originality rather than trends.

तेजिंदर सिंह मान के रूप में जन्मे और पेशेवर रूप से बब्बू मान के नाम से प्रसिद्ध हुए मान ने अपने करियर का निर्माण बदलते रुझानों के बजाय मौलिकता के आधार पर किया। एक गायक, गीतकार, संगीतकार, अभिनेता और निर्माता के रूप में उन्होंने अपने गीत स्वयं लिखे, अपना संगीत स्वयं तैयार किया और अपनी अलग पहचान बनाई। उनके काम ने उन्हें अंतरराष्ट्रीय पहचान और पंजाबी संगीत के सबसे वफादार प्रशंसक वर्गों में से एक दिलाया। वहीं कुछ लोगों का मानना है कि मुख्यधारा के व्यावसायिक रुझानों से दूरी बनाए रखने के कारण उनकी सफलता का दायरा सीमित रह गया। क्या मौलिकता के प्रति बब्बू मान की प्रतिबद्धता उनकी सबसे बड़ी ताकत थी या इसी वजह से वे और बड़ी सफलता से वंचित रह गए ? आपकी राय में, बब्बू मान के समग्र करियर को आप कैसे देखते हैं ?
