Held at a suburban restobar on December 18, his celebration saw director-lyricist Mudassar Aziz, composer Lalit Pandit, singers Amit Kumar and Anushka Manchanda and leading actors Sushmita Sen and Fardeen Khan (with wife Natasha) in attendance along with Bhushan Kumar and Vinod Bhanushali of T-Series. Guests spotted include W.B.Rao, Rahul Dholakia, Tara Sharma, Claudia Ciesla, Bharat Shah, Pooja Bedi, Ahmed Khan and Uvika Choudhury.
Amit Kumar was in his element after Viveck prophesied that he would be inundated with offers after his song Dilrubaaon ke jalwe, his first for Shah Rukh Khan after Jatin-Lalit’s Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa 15 years ago. Viveck jokingly said that his director Aziz had suggested certain contemporary names as lyricist but he had insisted on true-blue geniuses Anand Bakshi and Majrooh Sultanpuri. “My director told me that both the legends are no more, so I told him that he will have to do the songs himself!” he quipped.
