Indian music in Backstreet Boys’ album?

Backstreet boys may well team up with Indian musicians, since they’re ready for “anything new”. "We are always open to collaborations. Since we have been around the world, our inspirations have become international,” said band member Brian Littrell.

The band cited examples of previous tie-ups by US rapper Jay-Z with Punjabi MC and British rock musician Sting with sitar-player Anoushka Shankar.

Indian music has transcended boundaries and reached various corners of the world, believes the US band.

"Indian music is floating everywhere! We don't know the artists' names, but we get to hear it all over. Even the films are huge, especially something like Slumdog Millionaire," said Nick Carter.

We are ready for anything new, and Indian music would definitely be new for us," smiled Brian Littrell.
